What is a 'Drawdown' A drawdown is the peak-to-trough decline during a specific recorded period of an investment, fund or commodity. A drawdown is usually quoted as the percentage between the peak and the subsequent trough. Those tracking the entity measure from the time a retrenchment begins to when it reaches a new high. BREAKING DOWN 'Drawdown' This drawdown method of recording is useful because a valley can't be measured until a new high occurs.
