Your credentials aren't really relevant unless you're making an ad hominem argument to the effect that we should believe everything you say about finance because you're an authority.
Use of slang or jargon in a headline only subtracts points, in my gradebook. And if dumping is mostly just selling, why not say selling? Well the answer is "because clickbait." A devaluation, insult, or attack on Tesla generates more "engagement" than a sale of Tesla.
Besides which, dumping is an analogy. Nothing is literally being dumped, just like nothing ever gets literally pumped. Nor does anyone ever literally "take a bath" or "get taken to the cleaners." Nothing "crashes" and nothing "booms." And unless people start fucking cows or grabbing salmon out of rivers with their hands and biting their heads off, nobody is "bearish" or "bullish" either.
