misleading and irresponsible on Yahoo.news???

As soon as the cause was itentified, the stock (and ETEK) began to move up more like expected. I guess the bluff was over.
TP

(This shows the danger of companies like Yahoo selling spots for news releases to the highest bidder, it also shows the effect of SI on turning a stock faster than CNBC)

edit- :Good catch JAMES BORECKI

The source of that "news" story was Standard and Poors not Yahoo. Yahoo does not generate news; just prints it on the web.
I guess these guys (S and P)are just getting into the news business and are a few weeks behind.<g>

Maybe they want to try to push the stock down so they can announce that it is being added to the S and P. <g>
