All my financial changes this month were positive, but score dropped 16 points! **bleep**?

At start of month by credit score from Experian was 532.  Since then my credit card utilization dropped from 75% to 72%, and they removed an "overdue payment" that actually was not overdue.  The only other changes were some disputes I filed that are still under investigation.  Does credit score drop from filing disputes?
Otherwise something is FUBAR with FICO calculations.

Welcome to the forums!

Disputes do wonky things to FICO scores namely discounting tradelines which are under dispute potentially.  

As a result don't read anything into your score while the disputes are still active, it simply isn't meaningful until they're resolved.
