If it happened, it's a "dive" "drop" or "crash" because it's in the past and we don't have to trouble ourselves with it. If it's about to happen it's a "correction" or "reversion to the mean". My favorite is that when your bonds were devalued you took a "loss." But when your bonds are about to be devalued you're due for a "haircut." The stewardesses tell you what to do "in the event of a water landing." But when they pull you out of the ocean they'll say you died in a plane crash.
