This usually forces the average price down again to levels lower than that seen before the start of the bounce. Seasonality and price bounces Simple example of a generic drug price bounce The reasoning behind why some products bounce whereas others do not, is thought to lie in the rapidity of the initial price decline.

A letter by Fairfax to his father dated 4 June 1645 explains: > I am very sorry we should spend our time unprofitably before a town, whilst > the King hath time to strengthen himself, and by terror to force obedience > of all places where he comes; the Parliament is sensible of this now, > therefore hath sent me directions to raise the siege and march to > Buckingham, where, I believe, I shall have orders to advance northwards, in > such a course as all our divided parties may join. It is the earnest desire > of this Army to follow the King, but the endeavours of others prevent it > hath so much prevailed. On 5 June, Fairfax abandoned the siege, having received orders to engage the King and recapture Leicester instead.
