Diving into the NYISO’s recently released Power Trends report with Kevin Lanahan, podcast host and Vice President of External Affairs and Corporate Communications, they highlight how every plausible option and opportunity to bolster reliability and resource needs should be on the table.

A diamond engagement ring feels like an ancient tradition. Much of that tradition was deliberately manufactured.

This Fortune Chronicles documentary traces the rise of De Beers from the nineteenth-century diamond rush in southern Africa through Cecil Rhodes, Barney Barnato, Ernest Oppenheimer, the Central Selling Organisation, and N. W. Ayer’s campaign that made “A Diamond Is Forever” one of history’s most powerful advertising ideas.

The story also examines artificial scarcity, Botswana’s Debswana partnership, conflict diamonds, antitrust pressure, laboratory-grown diamonds, and the enduring ritual that transformed a luxury stone into a symbol of permanent love.

Subscribe to Fortune Chronicles for the hidden stories behind the fortunes, companies, and ideas that shaped the modern world.

February 3rd, 1637. A smoky tavern in Haarlem. An auctioneer lowers his price again and again — and gets total silence. That single silent afternoon became the founding myth of every financial bubble that followed: the South Sea Bubble, the dot-com crash, even Bitcoin. But the version you were taught — a whole nation losing its mind, sailors eating priceless bulbs, life savings vanishing overnight — was written 200 years later by a man who wasn’t even alive when it happened.

This is the real story of Tulip Mania: how a wild flower from the Tian Shan mountains became an Ottoman symbol of power under Sultan Mehmed II, how a stubborn botanist’s refusal to share his garden led to a heist that seeded the entire Dutch tulip trade, how a legal loophole sat unenforced for 27 years, and how the most valuable flower on Earth turned out to be dying of a virus the entire time. No panic. No stampede. Just one afternoon where the next buyer didn’t show up.

If you’ve ever heard Tulip Mania used as a warning about crowds losing their minds, this video shows you what the actual notary records say happened — and it’s quieter, and more unsettling, than the legend.
