The document defines an economic bubble as a trade in products or assets with inflated values that are sometimes referred to as speculative bubbles. It originated from the term "bubble" used to describe financial crises in the early 1700s. While bubbles can cause people to spend more due to feeling wealthier, they ultimately burst and leave those holding overvalued assets feeling less wealthy, with an overall negative economic impact. Some potential causes of bubbles include inflation and rising prices beyond an item's real value.

5. Impact
• Economic bubbles are generally considered to
have a negative impact on the economy
• Political economist Robert E. Wright argues
that bubbles can be identified ex ante with
high confidence.

6. Effect upon spending
• Market participants with overvalued assets
tend to spend more because they "feel" richer
(the wealth effect)
• But When the bubble inevitably bursts, those
who hold on to these overvalued assets
usually experience a feeling of reduced wealth

7. Possible causes
• Bubbles occur when prices for a particular
item rise far above the item's real value
• Some experts think that bubbles are related to
inflation and therefore believe that the factors
which cause inflation could also be the same
factors that cause bubbles to occur.
