Markets tend to go either way. It is clear that Clorox overshot to the upside when it hit highs of $237.94 in August 2020 and lost nearly half its value as it crashed through its low in June 2022. During the Pandemic years of 2020 through 2021, it grew at an annual rate of up to 9%. The stock price is expected to go up after an outlier event.
