Dumping is slang financial word for selling your entire inventory of certain type of thing. Usually this has underpinning that the item is some kind of hot potato that they want to get rid of. That is because, usually, selling a huge amount of stock like that causes the price to drop while you are selling it so it means you are accepting some additional losses for selling everything quickly. When Amazon sells me something they are not dumping it, because I buy just one item and it is not important for their financial situation.
