hadith 10483
Imam Ali (AS) said, It pleases me for a person to be righteously pious, free from avarice, abundant in kindness and lacking in [making others feel a sense of] obligation.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : يُعْجِبُني أنْ يَكُونَ الرَّجُلُ حَسَنَ الوَرَعِ مُتَنَزِّهاً عَنِ الطَّمَعِ كَثيرَ الإحْسانِ قَليلَ الاِمْتِنانِ

hadith 1511
Know, along with this, that most of them are very narrow-minded, and awfully avaricious. They hoard goods for profiteering and fix high prices for goods. This is a source of harm to the people and a blot on the officers in charge. Stop people from hoarding, because the Messenger of Allāh (S) has prohibited it.
وَاعْلَمْ مَعَ ذلِكَ أَنَّ فِي كَثِيرٍ مِنْهُمْ ضِيقاً فَاحِشاً، وَشُحّاً قَبِيحاً، وَاحْتِكَاراً لِلْمَنَافِعِ، وَتَحَكُّماً فِي الْبِيَاعَاتِ، وَذلِكَ بَابُ مَضَرَّةٍ لِلْعَامَّةِ، وَعَيْبٌ عَلَى الْوُلَاةِ، فَامْنَعْ مِنَ الِاحْتِكَارِ، فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) مَنَعَ مِنْهُ.
