Speaking of speculation, it was once a popular occupation.
During the transition from a planned economy to a market economy in China, there was a difference between planned and market prices, resulting in a discrepancy.
Some quick-witted individuals exploited this price difference to buy and sell goods for profit, thus earning the moniker "speculators."

Some formidable international speculators even transported domestic textiles abroad and brought scarce foreign goods back to China, earning huge amounts of foreign currency.
