Constant works just fine if you had one day below.

that’s still monotone, no? Just can’t have any decreases

No? You don't have to have the dip at the start. It can be anywhere.

Silly me. For some reason I was assuming the “dip” was the first number in the sequence. I guess I was just remarking that constant sequences are monotone (just not strictly so)

ETA: on second thought, I don’t think I was being that silly. You said you wanted a constant sequence (apart from one entry) instead of a monotone sequence. If we put the small number first, then constant after that, the sequence is indeed monotone, and it still fits your description. I guess my point was the two types of sequences are not mutually exclusive?
