bottom-fishing
Seeking undervalued assets
Bottom-fishing is seeking bargains among the cheapest or most depressed options.
In investing, it means buying stocks or assets that have fallen sharply in price, hoping they'll recover: He made his fortune bottom-fishing during the crash.
The term comes from literal fishing along the sea floor, where less prized species dwell.
