Dumping

Export price that is "unfairly low," defined as either below the home market price (normal value) (hence price discrimination) or below cost. With the rare exception of successful predatory dumping, dumping is economically beneficial to the importing country as a whole (though harmful to competing producers) and often represents normal business practice.

Dumping

Used in the context of general equities. Offering large amounts of stock with little or no concern for price or market effect.
