You are seeing that dumping right now I suspect. After the Feb. cc, AMAT hit its post cc low in early March, then recovered for the rest of March going from 31 13/16 during the day on March 10 to 35 5/16 close at the end of March. You then had a nice rally during the first three days of April because the sellers had exited. April 3rd trading day high was at $39 3/8. Will the cycle repeat? Time will tell all.
