Interesting Article About Eisner

I found this article in the LA Times on another site concerning the future of Michael Eisner as CEO of Disney. For fellow Disney stockholders, I found it quite interesting to read.

I found something puzzling, maybe you can help.
I'm charting Disney's historical prices beginning 8/1/01 as I'm looking for the window to buy shares of the company. Though, the price is around $15 right now, I'm not sure if it's a deal just yet.
Going back to last Sept. the stock closed on 9/10 @ 23.58 (give or take a few cents) theoretically, it should have opened on 9/17 @ 23.25-23.50. It didn't. It opened at 19. I checked 8 other companies both competitors and other industrys & only one also opened at 19, one airline out of 3. The rest were at their respective bid/ask spread. Being you are already a shareholder, did you receive an explanation? Obviously, the loss of approximately $5 was not due to consumer behavior.

And yes, Scrooge McDuck is my hero:)
