I can't find the tweet now, but Tavis Ormandy once talked about companies share prices often rebounding after a breach, so he was buying stock in companies that got hacked. Equifax was an example, I think.

It's called "buying the dip" and it's not specific to hacks; it happens on all kinds of bad news.

It already is around $1.4 from the close on heavy volume. It's pretty clear that they have a major problem.
