It's always like this. You forgot about oil... didn't you? Just when something like that happens.... it comes back. Have you ever gotten sick of a stock that doesn't move and then you sell it, only for it to rally within days?
Next time that happens... hold a few days longer and you'll be surprised at the result. Humans are more similar than we think. When you were thinking of selling there were thousands of other traders thinking the same thing. After they all sell, new buyers come in (the smart buyers) and now the stock rallies.
