When you say that something has `gone south’, what you mean is that it has gone down in value or quality.
Examples: when share prices went south, investors panicked.* Sania lost in the first round of the French Open. Her famous forehand seems to have gone south. * My friends sold off many of their stocks a week before the market went south.
