Tulip Mania, 2020
"Tulip tulip tulip! At my tulip worship museum and emporium, 'All Things Tulip', you can see the very latest in tulip technology, tulip breeding and tulip trading strategies."
"Something about this environment feels dreadfully wrong to me – a complete contradiction in terms of logic, common sense and fundamental economics. Every day new tulips come onto the market and the supply of them has never been higher, and yet every day the prices also reach new records. But the market is drowning in tulips and there is almost nobody left who doesn't already own them. There's not a whole lot you can do with them. And they only bloom for a week."Unless the laws of supply and demand have been magically rescinded, this fantastical bubble in tulips – in the middle of a government-mandated global depression – is likely to end very badly, particularly for neophyte investors who have been urged by irresponsible reserve banks and an unregulated financial media into the tulip market to the exclusion of just about everything else."
