I believe there is a similar reason for Google. I don't think that many people held Google as proxy for Facebook, but I am sure there are large funds that devote a certain percentage of their money for internet large cap stocks. Well, there aren't many internet large cap stocks, so Google held a large part of this money. When another internet large cap stock appears, the funds would sell some Google in order to get a proper exposure to Facebook. And thus Google falls.
