'The bottom drops/falls out of the market' -> nghĩa là thị trường sụp đổ hoàn toàn, doanh số bán sản phẩm nào đó đã ngừng ; hoặc mọi người không còn muốn mua sản phẩm đó nữa nên nó được bán với giá rất rẻ.

Ví dụ
Scott E. from Sheboygan, Wis., wrote, “About three weeks ago, I sold $15,000 worth of stock to free up cash for when — not if — the bottom drops out of the market again as it did in 2008 and 1987.”

That unexpectedly poor quarter soured investors on the company at the worst possible moment because it came just as the stock market seems to have run out of gas. That's leading investors to scramble to sell so they can lock in profits just in case the bottom drops out of the market.

The problem is, he said, the market for those materials has just gone “down, down, down”, plummeting (lao thẳng xuống, tụt) around 40-50% over the past three years. Recycled materials compete for buyers with “virgin” materials, and when those “virgin” materials are cheap, the bottom drops out of the market.
