Thats the Google finance search box and not the Google search box. So technically it should only show Stocks based results not keyword based results.

  It seems they are just deploying a keyword-density relevance algorithm..

    This can be debunked by running this query in google.com: site:finance.google.com sell "quotes & news" The top results is what you would get if it was a neutral algo, used by main google service. The apple redirect is not neutral and is not a result of any algorithm.

      that doesn't make sense. why would that be proof of anything? why would they do a relevance search based on the text of their own generated pages, much of which is just template and links to reuters stories, instead of over the raw data they used to generate that page? edit: I'm not asserting that this is on purpose or not, I'm just saying that that "proof" demonstrates nothing.

      That proves absolutely nothing. You talk as though you have a clue about search relevancy, but that's clearly not the case.
