Central + South America Medium Roast Coffee 100% Organic Arabica Beans$14.99
Needing a kick to that mid-morning routine to exploit the decrease in your mood. Without the slightest tang to the tongue, this blend of caramel, brown sugar, rich chocolate, and vanilla notes drift in a full-bodied brew. Dark mellow and creamy, with a surprising hint of sweetness, like that of a toasted marshmallow.
A small, brief recovery in the price of a declining stock following a sharp decline. As the old investment saying goes: “Even a dead cat will bounce if it is dropped from high enough.” The temporary recovery can bring benefits to many short-term traders, for example making profits.

Earthy and bittersweet with hints of caramel and chocolate, this full-bodied Mocha is paired well with the heavy-bodied Java. Ethiopian and the rich and spicy Sumatran? Well, one sip and it’s not going to be a normal Monday like its namesake. The blend may be a considered for investors seeking stability any day of the week to create a perfect balance to start your day.
Black Monday is the name commonly attached to the sudden, severe, and largely unexpected stock market crash on October 19, 1987. Led by computer-program driven trading models, the U.S. markets fell more than 20% in a single day. The severity of the crash sparked fears of extended economic instability and a reprise of the Great Depression.

“Irrational exuberance” was a phrase used by the then-Federal Reserve Board chairman, Alan Greenspan as part of a speech during the dot-com bubble of the 90’s. The phrase was interpreted as a warning that the stock market might be extremely overvalued and overbought. Greenspan later wrote in his 2008 book that the phrase occurred to him while writing the speech in his bathtub.

Unprecedented’s Ethiopian blend has a reputation for producing some of the finest beans in the world. Intensely aromatic, it seems uncommon to pick up the scent of flowers along with its wild and spicy dark chocolate and red wine aroma, where many deny it’s a light brew.
There is no doubt we are living in unprecedented times. Was it COVID, Brexit, or maybe the Australian Wildfires that set the tone for your year? Sure 2020 gave us the worst drop in the DOW since 1987, but it also gave us record-low mortgage rates. We can pivot our business to find that new idea, reimagine the way things used to be, and bridge newfound friendships with the neighbors next door. Unprecedented. It’s all about perspective.
