Lewis Barclay Brings Light to Glowstick Market

Left-wing thinker Zach Kidd today announced that Lewis Barclay is prepared to invest in glowsticks to create buffer stocks due to a predicted lack of supply to the market on their release on Friday 13th November, close sources to economists Sam Buckell and Kyle Dooley say.

Lewis Barclay has made it clear that he is indeed willing to make as much profit as possible from this venture by selling his stocks at a higher price when the original suppliers (a Division of Fullbrook School Student Leadership Team) run out of stocks on Friday. There is much anticipation that this will be the case.

A Fullbrook Spokesman, Mr Davidson, has come out against these suggestions from Barclay, saying "that's not the point, it's in the name of charity, and we are not doing this for profit. I
think he is a greedy b***ard."

This should lead to bartering due to the market clearing price not being apparent at the moment. As supply decreases more, price should in theory rise as Barclay intends to sap more Sterling from the consumer.

Kidd is willing to accept this venture from entrepreneur Mr Barclay, saying "He's a product of the capitalist market...good on him!"

There has also been much outrage in the 6th Form Canteen in recent times due to their complete monopolisation of the food market in the Sixth Form. Recently, the price of a panini went up just over 12% from £1.40 to £1.60, with no explanation of this from the management of the canteen service.

Kyle Dooley said of Lewis that "it is up to Mr Barclay whether he takes the 'leap of faith' as to whether supply will be inefficient as to meet demand of the consumer, however must be wary of his position in the market and offer a reasonable price for his goods."

  1. Lewis had the last laugh at the end of the day...

    Chris and the others wouldn't drop their price but didn't sell as quickly as expected, so the Guv was forced to lower his price by 15p to undercut the SLT's price...and made more money stick for stick than the team did - very sneaky. From the economist's point of view it was a good move on Lewis' part to make the extra cash.
