Term · Market

tea speculation

Literal meaning

stir-fry tea (to hype tea)

Definition#

In the market sense, speculative trading or price-hyping of tea, buying to resell on rising quotes rather than to drink. It shares its written form with 炒茶 in processing (pan-firing of leaf), and only context separates them.
