Stock traders who do not have any information about nintendo’s plans beyond the rumors in the press have sold shares in response to rumors in the press about the switch 2.
Generally, “dip” carries the connotation that there will be a rebound, or a return to the original position. A “drop” however would mean that this would hurt the company in the long run.
Basically, stock markets are based on predictions. If it is likely a stock will continue to fall, it is called a drop. You can not know if it’s a dip or a drop in advance because rising and falling stocks are always relative to the rest of the environment. So calling it a drop would be not wrong, but an unlikely prediction.

Rules:
1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
Because some people wanted to cash in on the rumoured release, nothing too interesting.

nothing is confirmed until something is confirmed
There’s a quote by Miyamoto Shigeru that comes to mind here. “A delayed game will eventually be good, but a bad game will forever be bad.”
Actually, I think the quote was “bitches be trippin’ if they think we gonna put this shit out before it’s good.”
LMFAO
It’s a dip, not a drop. Maybe you want to mitigate the sensationalist headline.
What’s the difference? Is a dip not a drop?
Generally, “dip” carries the connotation that there will be a rebound, or a return to the original position. A “drop” however would mean that this would hurt the company in the long run.
So calling it a dip is basically assuming something that is not yet proven true, while calling it a drop is merely stating what has happened so far.

that’s not at all what op said??
these words contain contextual clues that allow an individual to hopefully understand a situation more clearly.
i think the stock market might be a bit too much for you at the moment.
Ohhh noooo not the shares!
Won’t someone think of the poor billionaires!
The switch 2 isn’t even out yet and I already hate it.
Agreed. If a game like zelda totk can run on the switch there’s plenty of life left and we don’t need a switch 2.
We didn’t need a WiiU either, but it was the testbed for what became the Switch. I say let them showcase some new features.
Totk can barely run on the Switch. It is pretty much up against the limits of what can be done on that hardware.
