"Bump along the bottom" nghĩa là gì?


"Bump along the bottom" = chấp chới dưới đáy -> nghĩa là nghèo khó, không có dấu hiệu cải thiện.  

Ví dụ
Europe's airline capacity bumps along the bottom; lockdowns ease. Total seat numbers in Europe have dropped 86.5% year-on-year in the week commencing (mở đầu) 11-May-2020, according to schedules from OAG, combined with CAPA Fleet Database seat configurations. This is very fractionally (phần nhỏ) better than the previous week's 87.1% decline, but the third successive week very close to -87% after hitting a low of -90.4% in the week of 20-Apr-2020.

Before recovery, first we must find the bottom. You’ll know the bottom because that’s the point at which things stop getting worse.

Nearly two-thirds of survey respondents expect the economy to bump along the bottom for some period of time before beginning to recover sometime in late 2020 or early 2021 — looking more like a narrow or even wide ‘U-curve’ trajectory (đường đạn).

“The pair continues to bump along the bottom of the recent range around €1.1050, awaiting some fresh impetus (thúc đẩy). “That fresh impetus is unlikely to be found today, despite the release of ECB minutes and a host of ECB speakers, with the market remaining fixated on the latest US coronavirus infection numbers.”
