Tulip Mania: The First Bubble and the Timeless Lessons of Value Investing
Update: 2025-11-21
Description
In this episode of Intelligent Investment Today, host David Coombs explores one of the most famous episodes in financial history - Tulip Mania, the 17th century Dutch bubble that turned ordinary flower bulbs into symbols of speculative excess.
Through the lens of Benjamin Graham's value investing principles, we unpack what drove the mania, how it collapsed, and why the same psychology of greed and fear still drives markets today - from the dot-com boom to cryptocurrencies and meme stocks.
Discover what Tulip Mania teaches modern investors about intrinsic value, market psychology, and the timeless importance of asking one simple question: "How much am I paying for what I'm getting?"
