English term or phrase: tulip mania
Definition from Economic Times:
Tulip mania is used as a metaphor to describe an economic bubble. People start investing in a particular asset in large quantities because of positive sentiments about it. This pushes the prices of that asset to very high levels. After reaching a peak, prices suffer a sharp fall due to an extensive sell off, leaving the asset holders bankrupt. These assets are metaphorically called tulips.

Example sentence(s):
  • Tulip mania gets brought up again and again, as a warning to investors not to be stupid, or to stay away from what some might call a good thing. The Conversation
  • The enduring power of so-called Tulip Mania means it still gets trotted out in 2018 when people talk about Bitcoin, which reached a record high last November, but has since fluctuated in value. BBC.com
  • But even if a form of tulip mania did strike Holland in 1636, did it reach every rung of society, from landed gentry to chimney-sweeps? Goldgar says no. Most of the buyers were the sort you would expect to be speculating in luxury goods—people who could afford it. History

Albanian translation:mania e tulipanit
Definition:
Mania e Tulipanit ishte një nga flluskat e para financiare të regjistruara dhe ndodhi kryesisht në Holandë midis 1634 dhe 1637. Pasi lulet e tulipanit kontraktuan një virus, çmimet e tyre u rritën në mënyrë të vazhdueshme dhe e bënë lulet më të kërkuara nga shtresa e lartë. Por siç ndodh në flluska spekulative, mbajtësit përfundimisht filluan të shesin tulipanët e tyre për të forcuar fitimet duke rezultuar në një lak çmimesh me çmime më të ulëta.(scan)
