dropping in anticipation of the spin-off distribution

From the link you provided;

The distribution is planned for June 1, 2002, to the holders of Lucent common stock as of the close of business on May 3, 2002, the record date.


I'd think any selling pressure would occur on the ex-dividend date.

Swenlin on gold: "Gold is in a major bull market. There will surely be some healthy declines, but I assume that such retrenchments will be in preparation for higher highs. On Tuesday Rydex Precious Metals Fund had a one-day increase in assets of about +25%, and total assets far exceeded any previous asset peak. This could be characterized as a blowoff, but this bull market is just beginning, and I think it more likely represents a "recognition impulse" that signals the onset of a much stronger advance. Bullish sentiment for gold is exceedingly high, but bullish sentiment is not always wrong. The stocks have gotten ahead of themselves and are correcting, but my guess is that the XAU will find support at around 80, then will advance again."
