    Explaining economics to people with single track minds is an impossible task.


    there are a few components to the flux
    1.Speculators
    2.Future projections of cost must be factored when selling your current stock. If you expect the cost of future product to be higher than the product you are curently holding, you need to increase the price NOW to be able to afford the same amount of future product.
    3.Arbitrary increases due to destablized supply chain
