Latest comments

If you actually look at the Tulip Mania crash of 1630s the correlation is very very eerie. A pandemic leading to a massive bubble in an asset (the bubonic plague one of the main drivers of the Tulip bubble), an asset with largely no real value beyond what the next person is willing to pay for it, trading houses or currency exchanges popping up all over the place, massive growth in value, poor imitations or similar assets popping up...but then the plague ended. People stopped buying and showing up for auctions and within several months the bubble had crashed and prices were down below where they were before the pandemic started as there was so much oversupply of options / no trust left in the market.
