Article 28

Des Accaparemens

Commercial Law
Titre I: Du Commerce en général (On Commerce in General)
Chapitre IV: Des Accaparemens (On Hoarding)

Est aussi prohibé, tout accaparement quelconque, lorsqu'il proviendra d'une nouvelle de paix ou de guerre, ignorée dans l'endroit où il s'effectuera.

Life lesson: Insider trading on war and peace news to hoard goods is banned — profiting from information asymmetry is illegal.
Notes: Insider-trading analog: hoarding based on non-public war/peace news prohibited. Early information asymmetry regulation. Remarkably modern provision.
