I don't know that this is a bug as much as it is a new player mistake, but it caused me a bit of grief.
Since you must have 75k in fixed assest to buy anything on the market or 80k to buy on contract, you can easily get caught in a trap.
I was trying to raise money to buy a large amount of a particular product. I sold all my buildings and all my resources. I was hoping to purchase this product and "corner the market" heheh.
What I didn't know was the requirement to have so much in fixed assets to purchase anything. It's not an issue that I couldn't buy the resource I was hoping, but it was an issue that I could not buy stone, wood, or steel. It was ironic that I couldn't even buy back the stone I had put on the market.
I hope this make sense. I don't know if this is a bug per se, but it is a nasty trap if you're new like me.
Thanks! It's a great game.

No, this is no bug, although you are right: this should be mentioned in the ingame help. A reason, that this is not mentioned there is, that it was simply forgotten. This 75k limit had been implemented into the game after the players of the German version wanted to have this. They wanted to avoid with this, that cheaters could buy/sell/trade too quick after resetting their multi-account... or after building one of their 250 other accounts
