'Caught with one's pants down' = bị bắt gặp lúc bạn tuột quần -> bị bắt gặp trong tình huống xấu hổ hoặc tình thế nhạy cảm
Ví dụ
Cramer says “you don’t want to get caught with your pants down” when a stock (chứng khoán) rises on a rotation (xoay vòng) and not the fundamentals.
Reflecting (phản ánh) on the entire inspection (điều tra) system, Mr Laurenson added: “Obviously these things are in place (bình thường; ở đúng vị trí) for a reason, but sometimes you can get caught with your pants down.”
"My wife just said, very casually, ‘they should have a vending machine (máy bán hàng tự động) that services families all the time.’ And we went away, and got a little obsessed (ám ảnh), decided to design one. Basically it’s for families on the go, you don't want to be caught with your pants down or your kids might become a little bit nuts (ngốc nghếch)," said Carrington at a stop in Utica.
Economic growth (tăng trưởng kinh tế) is low, inflation (lạm phát) expectations are low, and the Fed will cut rates (lãi suất) as a consequence. What if consensus (nhận thức; sự nhất trí) is wrong, however? Is there a case for higher inflation? And if consensus is wrong, you certainly don't want to be caught with your pants down or go scrambling (hấp tấp) for what to do.
