    The result in position 4 has been rotating between three different firms all day for our industry's top value keyphrase. All other listings above and below remain constant.

    It happens all the time for couple of reason

    1. You may be hitting the different data center
    2. Google is updating (Which is normally very often.)

    shabbirbhimani is right.. or it could be due to google dance or just a simple tweak because of the updates.

    Try this tool so you could see and compare your SERP to different data centers. http://www.mcdar.net/dance/index.php

    Persanalised search - Google might be taking into account your IP and browser delivering new results every time...

    There may be two reason of it,

    1: Fluctuation of back links
    2: Different data centers

    This is normal especially if you are targeting a competitive search term.
