The beginning of a potato rumor
One morning, a news spread in the vegetable shop in the market—
“There's a French Fry Festival 🍟 happening in the area! Where everyone can win prizes by making potato fries!”
Hearing this news, the village erupted in an uproar. People rushed to the market with carts, wheelbarrows, and even bicycle baskets. “Give me 10 kg of potatoes!”, “I need 20 kg!”—the shouts began.
The price of potatoes skyrocketed. It seemed like this price would only go up to the moon.
Market correction: The first blow of the potato saga
But then came the big twist. The village inspector said, "There is no shortage of potatoes. We entered the warehouse and saw that there were mountains of potatoes!"
Now those who had bought potatoes at high prices sat down with their heads in their hands.
"I bought it for 10 times more! Oh potato, why are you so cruel!"
Meanwhile, the price dropped by 10%.
This is a market correction—when the excitement of rumors subsides, market prices return to normal.

Then traders from neighboring villages rushed to seize the opportunity. They arrived with ox carts, boats, and even vans full of potatoes.
“Here, buy cheap potatoes! Our potatoes are for your family!”
With the abundance of potatoes in the market, prices dropped another 25%.
This is a market pullback—when new competition enters the market and temporarily lowers prices.

People panicked.
"What are we going to do with all these potatoes? No one will buy our potatoes!"

This is a market crash—when the market takes a big hit and everyone suffers.

Hearing this news, people were furious. "They have robbed me of my money!" Everyone ran after the syndicate with sacks of potatoes.
This is market scam—when the market is deliberately manipulated through deception.
