- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

So calling it a dip is basically assuming something that is not yet proven true, while calling it a drop is merely stating what has happened so far.
Basically, stock markets are based on predictions. If it is likely a stock will continue to fall, it is called a drop. You can not know if it's a dip or a drop in advance because rising and falling stocks are always relative to the rest of the environment. So calling it a drop would be not wrong, but an unlikely prediction.
that's not at all what op said??
these words contain contextual clues that allow an individual to hopefully understand a situation more clearly.
i think the stock market might be a bit too much for you at the moment.
