Who stole all the chocolates

[Uncle C]

A single trade, valued at £58 million pounds, has cornered the European market for cocoa beans. It amounts to 241,000 tons and will be stored in a warehouse.

The aim is to cause a shortage and push up prices

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

Paid about 100x too much then

 

[Gwylan]

ISn't cornering the market illegal?

 

[Chester Drawers]

Antony "Chocofinger" Ward ....apparently the price is set to soar as the Togo Coffee crop failed this year ... luckily I drink tea !

 

[Tricky Dicky]

Was it the Penis Man of Lewes ?

 

[Chicken Runner61]

He's lost out so far the price dropped on Monday after he bought it last week

Does this mean I'll have to start drinking Horlicks at bedtime instead? Bloody hate the stuff.

Indeed.

I reckon this could be a MARATHON thread. Do people see the guy who has done this as an AERO or a villain?

Or even a Cadbury's Hero?

I heard a wispa to that effect.

Bit of a Chomp if the price continues to Spira downwards. He'll have to Fudge his books.

 

[Frutos]

Or even a Cadbury's Hero?

I heard a wispa to that effect.

Either way I'm sure he'll (dairy) milk it for all it's worth.

 

[philsussex]

The bloke must be a bit of a Flake, but if his gamble pays off, I'm sure he'll Revel in his Bounty

It's good this isn't it? Even though we're basically just listing chocolate bars.
