| | That seems to be a "buzzword term" in the stock trade | Explanation:
Greetings / tahaiya tayyiba...
In view of the context for this phrase, "under water" seems to be a "buzzword" term used by stock traders to describe or characterize stocks that have sunk, usually quickly and drastiscally, in their market value.
Two terms for "low-value stocks"follow:
أسهم ردئية القيمة
أسهم أدنى القيمة
Perhaps two matching - in context -terms for "under water" are "fell below the horizon" or "dropped off the radar screen."
Fuad Yahya may be able to provide some other suitable terms.
