And they always have been. The volatility of goods have been factored into the price already. If there is some reason to believe the volatility is going to change in the long term that could affect price, but again a spike like this is not indicative of a long term trend.

Cal-Maine's stock is up 47% from a year ago – a record high. From eggspensive thread. I think this is the first egg 'price gouging' event in my lifetime. Its the opposite of 'long term trend' that you say is necessary for stock price bump.
