The Dutch tulip mania (also referred to as tulipomania or tulip bubble) took place in the 17th century and represents humanity's first recorded asset bubble.
As strange as the idea of a tulip mania or asset bubble involving tulips may seem, things initially made sense. However, as time passed, prices spiked up dramatically and everyone wanted to be involved in the tulip mania.
The tulip bubble, just like all of the other bubbles that followed it, had many winners but even more losers. Fortunes were made during the tulip mania but even more fortunes were lost.
At the end of the day, the Dutch tulip mania is more than an economics lesson or history lesson. The Dutch tulip bubble of the 16th century tells us quite a bit about human nature and as such, represents a truly fascinating piece of economic history that everyone needs to understand properly.
