Trading below Cost describes a market condition where a significant portion of an asset’s supply is trading at a price lower than its acquisition cost for the current holders. This indicates that many investors are holding unrealized losses. It often signals a period of market distress or capitulation, where selling pressure may eventually subside as unprofitable positions are liquidated. This state can precede a market rebound.
