I note that ALB suffered a similar fall last year, from around $3.50 to $2.00.......in August last year....

The size of this year's repeat may be larger only because the rest of the market were at it as well (falling) instead of rising as they were this time last year.

If this is an annual repeat then I note that last year, in the course of about one month, it recovered to its former level before giving some back and then continuing on an upward trend to $4.50 with a brief spike to over five bucks.

I picked some up at $2.22 in the morning, and then 10% lower at $2.03 in the afternoon (after a change of underwear).
