Tulip Mania - The First Economic...

Kelly Mass

Tulip Mania, often considered the first recorded speculative bubble in history, took place during the Dutch Golden Age in the early 17th century. This period saw some tulip bulbs, which had been newly introduced to Europe, achieve extraordinary prices. The peak of the tulip market occurred in 1634, with prices reaching unbelievable levels before plummeting drastically in February 1637. This event is frequently cited as an early example of an asset bubble, where the prices of goods diverged dramatically from their intrinsic value. The tulip mania of the 1630s remains one of the most notable cases of speculative fever in financial history. 
Despite the frenzied speculation surrounding tulips, the overall economic impact on the Dutch Republic was limited. While the tulip mania itself was a unique socio-economic event, it did not significantly harm the prosperity of the Dutch economy. In fact, the Dutch Republic was one of the world's leading economic and financial powers during the 17th century, boasting the highest per capita income in the world from around 1600 to 1720. The country’s financial and economic institutions were advanced, and its economy continued to thrive even as the tulip market collapsed. Today, the term "tulip mania" has evolved into a metaphor used to describe any situation in which asset prices become detached from their underlying value, only to be followed by a sharp decline.
