????大家可以在谷歌財經（Google Finance）上試試下面這些搜索：

????輸入“賣出”（sell，不加引號），搜索結果是蘋果（Apple）

????輸入“超賣”（over sold），搜索結果是亞馬遜（Amazon）

????輸入“買入”（buy），這下你猜對了，結果是百思買（Best Buy，名稱里有buy這個單詞——譯注）

????上周六對谷歌財經而言注定是個忙碌的日子?？萍疾┛虶reedy Picks首先發現“賣出蘋果”這個離奇的搜索結果，并稱其為“落井下石之舉”。隨后，科技博客The Next Web的一位讀者又發現了“超賣”和“亞馬遜”的神秘聯系。筆者想試試百思買，看能不能發現些更有趣的東西。

????不過，這可不是谷歌復活節彩蛋的玩笑，或是所謂的山景城陰謀，這也許只是個統計學問題。The Next Web的讀者Hej-san指出，這個結果可能是基于用戶在搜索“AAPL”或“蘋果”時，提及“賣出”一詞的頻率。

????點擊蘋果搜索結果頁面上的“更多結果”選項，你會發現其它許多正在被賣出的股票。緊隨蘋果之后的是安謀國際科技（ARM Holdings）、信越化學（Shin-Etsu Chemical）和安德瑪服裝（Under Armour）。

????最新消息：谷歌的一位發言人向多名博主發出電子郵件，申明了谷歌公司的官方立場。這其中包括PFHub的丹尼爾·奎多蒂，他聲稱自己第一個發現了“賣出蘋果”錯誤。

????我來自谷歌……，我想說，這不是有意的。我們的搜索算法在檢索‘sell’（賣出）和‘sells’這兩個非常流行的股票用語時似乎出現了故障。我們正在對此進行調整，以確保今后不再發生類似事情。感謝你們指出此錯誤。

????果然，現在你輸入“賣出”一詞再也看不到蘋果了。展現在你眼前的是以安謀國際科技打頭的一長串公司。

????Tricks you can play with Google Finance:

????Typing "sell" (without quotes) brings up Apple (AAPL)

????Typing "over sold" brings up Amazon (AMZN)

????Typing "buy" brings up -- you guessed it -- Best Buy (BBY)

????Saturday was a busy day for Google Finance memes. The "sell Apple" one was started, apparently, by?Greedy Picks, who described it as "kicking someone in the face when they are already down." A reader at?The Next Web?reader noticed the "over sold -- Amazon" connection. I found Best Buy hoping for something more interesting.

????No, this isn't a Google (GOOG) Easter egg joke or Mountain View conspiracy. It's probably just statistics. As TNW reader Hej-san points out, the result is likely based on the number of times the word 'sell' is mentioned in a search for "AAPL" or "Apple."

????Click on the blue "More results" button on the Apple page and you can see what other stocks are popular sells. For starters, after Apple: ARM Holdings (ADR), Shin-Etsu Chemical and Under Armour (UA).

????UPDATE: A spokesperson from Google has written to several bloggers -- including?PFHub's Daniel Guidotti, who claims he was the first to spot the "sell Apple" phenomenon -- to give Google's official position:

????I'm writing from Google…. just wanted to say this isn't deliberate — our algorithms seem to be keying off of the words "sell" and "sells" in the description of this very popular stock symbol. We're working on how to adjust things so it doesn't happen anymore. Thanks for raising.

????Sure enough, type "sell" now and you no longer get Apple. You do, however, get a list of stocks beginning with ARM Holdings.
