overbought

/ˈoʊvɝˈbɔt/ adj

Of a stock or commodity market condition: where there has been significant trading bidding up prices to higher levels, levels which seem overextended or excessive on a short-term basis.

Word Origin Overbought is the past participle of overbuy, meaning to buy too much. The prefix over- (from Old English ofer) adds the sense of excess, as in overdo, overpay, overwork. Buy comes from Old English bycgan, related to bargain, so overbought literally means 'bought beyond what's needed.'

adj Of a stock or commodity market condition: where there has been significant trading bidding up prices to higher levels, levels which seem overextended or excessive on a short-term basis.
