Dropping profits and stock prices have analysts speculating that Sun could be a target for either acquisition or a restructuring in which the company would sell off parts of the business and focus on a smaller set of technologies. In a July 31 report, the 451 Group analyst firm raised the possibility of Sun being acquired: 'Sun's sunken stock price creates a relative bargain considering its roughly $4 billion cash on hand, sizeable intellectual property and patent portfolio, and of course, its respected technology and products'.

The problem with economics 101 and the citing there of is that if you read rest of economics you'll realize that everything taught at econ 101 was at best a gross oversimplification and at worst completely wrong. Thus any argument made based solely on anything taught in econ 101 is at best a gross oversimplification and at worst completely wrong.
The economy is incredibly complex and anyone telling you that it can be completely explained using a simply supply/demand curve is probably lying.
