How to use lull in a sentence?

  1. Lakshheish M Patel:

    Share price movement up or down takes place only 45 mins in the first and the last hour of trading session and rest of the time in between there is completely lull or virtually no significant action

  2. Tony Gonzales:

    And then it stops, and he barricades himself in. That's where there's kind of a lull in the action, all of it, I understand, lasted about an hour, but this is where there's kind of a 30-minute lull. They feel as if they've got him barricaded in.

  3. Pete Marocco:

    I don’t see him as having that sort of sensitivity or caring unless there might have been some sort of tactic or mutual agreement with China, if he did that, that would be a surprising strategic blunder on his part. I tend to think that there’s another explanation behind the scenes as to why there was this lull before the start. Perhaps to allow predictable sanctions targets enough time to move assets before U.S. sanctions would be put in place.

  4. Cooper Kupp:

    We talk a lot about just being able to do your job, we went through a little bit of a lull there leading into halftime and through that third quarter. We just needed to keep pushing and keep trusting in the details of things.

  5. Chris Zaccarelli:

    It's the lull before earnings. There's not as much enthusiasm for buying, investors don't think companies will surprise as positively as they did in the first quarter.
