About this episode
In the 1630s, tulip bulbs in the Netherlands became more valuable than homes, wages, and entire farms, sparking one of history’s most infamous speculative frenzies. In this special IBKR Podcast, we explore how Tulip Mania unfolded, why rational investors got swept up in the madness, and what modern markets can still learn from a flower-fueled financial bubble.
