One way of thinking about is that there was a ton of energy released on that sell-off and it takes time for such an imbalance to resolve (markets spend more time ranging).
Conservation of energy -> stored potential energy released into kinetic energy - back to building up potential energy.
The compressed spring was released and it will now just oscillate about the mean and compress once again until there is new information or there is enough positioning built up on one side or another to unravel into.
