English term or phrase: dead cat bounce

On Wall Street, there is talk of a dead cat bounce. That’s when the markets move higher, the suckers start buying and the smart money shorts stocks or heads for the sidelines. A few days or weeks later, the dead cat smacks the pavement again. Hard.

Does anyone know of an "official" translation of this expression?
