Mississippi Bubble 1720
John Law’s Mississippi Company and Banque Royale fused monetary expansion, colonial equity, and French public finance until 1720 — a state-run bubble that ended in a paper-money collapse.
Definition
Mississippi Bubble 1720 refers to a state-run bubble that ended in a paper-money collapse. Keep that definition fixed when comparing series, managers, or regimes — renaming the same tape does not create a new signal.
Why it matters
It is a named object desks use to frame risk, positioning, or process. When a state-run bubble that ended in a paper-money collapse shifts, related hedges, limits, and narratives usually need an explicit update rather than a quiet assumption.
Case
Suppose a desk is positioned for the opposite of what mississippi bubble 1720 is saying. If a state-run bubble that ended in a paper-money collapse moves against that book, the first question is not “is the story clever?” but whether size, hedges, and stop logic still match the observation.
How to read it
Keep the definition fixed, then challenge it with cross-checks before sizing. Prefer a short written null hypothesis for Mississippi Bubble 1720: what would falsify the current reading in the next window?
