I remember learning about the inverted pyramid, but surely there's supposed to be something beyond the capstone?

Shares of Opera Software soared last week on market talk Facebook Inc. was in discussion to acquire the firm for its advanced mobile phone software technology.

or, as it were:

Shares of {company} soared last week on market talk {bigger company} was in discussion to acquire the firm for its {asset}.

Could swear there used to be a time when a stock's prices went down if there were rumors the company was going to be sold.
