Something Slightly Strange

Okay, I have to admit, my numbers aren't exact (ie-to the decimal point), but they're about as close as I remember, but yesterday, during Bush's acceptance speech, the Dow was up about 99 points. During the course of the speech, my coworkers and I kept watching that gain slip down to the 70's, which means, that the Dow fell at least 20 point WHILE BUSH WAS TALKING. I'm not sure what it means, and the market did recover and close up around 101, but still, it was a little weird. I kept imagining the folks in the pits looking up the their TV monitors and going "Oh shit, you meant HIM?"
Seriously, if someone else can verify this, I'd really appreciate it.
