I respectfully disagree -

When the shares are down, the acquired firms get the same dollar value worth of stock - which means more shares. They hear the whole story, and they are able to put their own peg on the value of the shares. If the shares are down, but the story hasn't changed, it is the ideal time for the firm being acquired to close the deal. Hell, an argument could be made that firms in negotiations with THK would go to some length to keep the shares down. JMHO.
