The term "falling knife" describes a market occurrence where the cost of a particular asset falls sharply and quickly. The asset in question is avoided by traders who watch the descending knife until it reaches the lowest price point. When the price of the asset experiencing the falling knife reaches its lowest point, it suddenly rises, creating a whipsaw.
