No one has ever heard about Tulip in Holland before 1593 but in early 1630 histories get re-written, the rich get richer and smith catch up with jones. The only objective was TULIP. Because of horticulture experimenting, Holland got many new breeds of Tulip in first decade of 17th century. Very soon these Tulip became a sign of power and prestige in the country.
When the middle-income groups realized that this was actually an easy-money scheme. How much the rich spent on the flowers and how high the margins were in the trade. Then the idea begin to grow in their minds. All they had to do was plant the bulb, nurture it and soon enough they could reap the benefits of their toil…literally.
The true bulb buyers (the garden centers of the past) began to fill up inventories for the growing season, depleting the supply further and increasing demand.This tulip trade was very much successful in country that why in a very few time-period the entire dutch community became involve in this Tulip Trade. There were even OPTIONS and FUTURES for Tulip bulbs not yet shown. These Tulip bulbs were sold by weight, usually while they were still on the ground. This type of trading is known as WIND-TRADING as the price quoted by speculators were made up of thin air. The complete dutch society was desperate trade in this tulip bulbs and all this desperation came with result that peoples start selling their small business and family jewels were either traded or sold. People sold their homes, their property, everything they had to cash in on the frenzy.
The local governments tried unsuccessfully to outlaw this commerce. The bottom fell out in 1637 because these bulb trader could not get the usual inflated cost for their TULIP BULBS. This phenomenon results in crash of markets. Thousands of Dutch businessman, many among leading economic operators were ruined in less than 2 months time. This market crash in 1937 results in term of bankruptcy of many organization and institutions and in History all this phenomenon is known as great Tulip Trade or TULIPOMANIA.
While the frenzy lasted the prices of the bulbs actually hit a $14,000 (current market price). But that is not to say that the Dutch love story with the flower is over…far from it. Though the margins have come back to ground level, the saga continues. The flower originally brought to the country by Carolus Clusius, director of the Royal Medicinal Garden in Vienna, who successfully raised the first European tulips during the 16th century, tulips are still a booming industry in Holland.
