Will my site go back up when cached next?

i was stable second, now 4th overnight but no date

[chrisandsarah]

Hello,

My position for my main targeted keywords has dropped on google from 2nd to 4th.
and the guy who was top is now 3rd. Ive noticed that the 2 sites that have leapfrogged his and my site have dates in their listings, whereas our two sites have no date.
Does this mean that the sites with no date by them have not been crawled lately and that when they are there is a likelyhood that they might go back up top?

Thanks for any info

And yes it means they were spidered that day.
