使(向某方向)移动
If something sends things or people in a particular direction, it causes them to move in that direction.
硬按这个意思翻译的话就是：使价格向向下的这个方向下降。
send在这里的用法是使sth形成一个什么样的动作。
eg：The explosion sent shrapnel flying through the sides of cars on the crowded highway

我感觉是的

我查了的 有 send  to do   send  doing  实际上send是实意动词   意思差别都在todo  和  doing这两个状语  上

觉得蛮好的，可以解释这个情况，引述下列：http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/business-english/send?q=send

to cause someone or something to do a particular thing, or to cause something to happen:
send sth higher/up/through the roof Eventually demand outstrips supply, sending prices through the roof.
send sth plummeting/plunging/tumbling
send sth soaring/skyrocketing
