Typically, when a new page is loaded but the new page does not specifically designate focus, the magnification stays focused on the part of the screen that last had focus.

So if you had been tabbing and were focused on a link at the bottom right hand corner of the screen and you then clicked the link, focus would still remain there when the new page was loaded. If you hit the tab key and system focus moved to the first link on the page, then the magnified viewport would move to that part of the screen.
