The Market

On the share market, the higher the demand for a particular stock, the higher the cost.  At The Trader Bar, the stocks in question are competing beers, spirits and cocktails.  As more patrons buy a particular drink, that price goes up as other less popular choices drop in cost.  Patrons are now faced with the decision of drinking an old favourite that may be at a high price or trying something new for a lower cost.

 

There are of course some "Blue Chip" products that are not subject to market forces, however all of our basic spirits, almost all beers, lots of cocktails and several different wines by the glass flucuate with the market each evening.

 

The exception to this is Black Tuesdays, when drinks remain on "crash prices all night, in memory of '29 and '87.
