The chicken farmer patiently spends more money on cages, water pipes and other facilities to increase egg output. A businessman buys the chicken farmer's land at 10 a.m. He spreads the rumor that the lot will become a mini mall servicing the people in the area. Real estate prices in the town soar. He sells the land at 4 p.m. and makes a huge profit.
Speculators invest much on farm real estate.
They lose big, so the chicken farm devalues the egg. The speculators wonder which farms are the weakest. They take their money out of them. They also fall and are forced to devalue the egg. Farmers have to sell the eggs at a low price or the mob will burn their farms because of their race.
