The company was up about 1.3% at its highs in the premarket, an addition of about $37 billion in market cap (equivalent roughly to adding an Electronic Arts, General Mills, or Hershey). It then proceeded to swing deeply into the red, falling as much as 4.6%. That’s tantamount to the destruction of market value you’d see if Deere & Co. or Boeing vanished.
