Has this had any effect on their stock yet?

Lets see how the stock reacts to this.

You'd be surprised what that does to a stock price :)

Hmm, you'd think this would make the stock go down (today), but it hasn't yet.

It seems likely that the information wasn't already public knowledge or the stock's price would have dropped in advance of the public statement. We've seen this year how fickle the markets can be to public "knowledge" such as when United declared bankruptcy or when Steve Jobs had a heart attack.

I thought this was a huge issue for the company and their stock should tank. but somehow it went up today.

Somewhat comically, the stock jumped on this news.

interesting comment - made me look up the stock and it just jumped. Propelled by this news perhaps?

The stock price did spike after they announced this a few weeks ago, so you might be on the money.

The chart looks interesting on this news. It shot to as high as 27.40 in the 30 second period after this was announced and then fell back to its original price level within 5 minutes.It looks like the machines like the news much better than the humans do:)
