DOW stocks staggered their opening

It was kind of strange... only 3 or 4 DOW stocks actually opened on-time at 9:30AM. One by one over the next 20 minutes, the others began trading. Believe it or not, I think this help temper the initial downdraft. For instance BA opened on time and started going up, helping the DJIA. I'm not sure if this was premeditated or what but I thought it was pretty slick!
