It is a very common headline in Polish financial newspapers (like Puls Biznesu) to describe market trends. The phrase reflects the post-1989 transition in Poland, where a society previously limited by shortages suddenly found a world of possibilities. Polish authors like Henryk Sienkiewicz used similar metaphors to describe the ambitions of the nobility.
