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. HTH. Khair, in she' Allah Regards from California, Stephen H. Franke Dict. of Trade & Banking (Al-Najafi & Al-Ayoubi) |
