It's called filler It's a Friday in Summer and CNBC will hype anything to fill air time. Same reason they keep flogging the Condit interview.

John: Boy is that one tough question. On its face the answer is yeah, the only difference is the 7 days for the order to take effect, or some such. BUT, the importance of the new "news" would require a rereading of the entire orig July CA order, then read the moving papers in support and opposition, then read this new minute order, which may only be a reflection of the original bench order denying the stay. All to determine the SCOPE of the District court's jurisdiction on remand. This would give you an inkling of what the court of appeal now means. I am sure ms lawyers are ruining their weekend doing just this. I would do so also, but I already promised to take my cat to the dry cleaners. :)) An argument could be made that some stock funds have done just this and confirmed that the scope is very limited, hence the bump. I just don't know. A swing trader, should know maybe.
