that's a good catch actually. Idk what the impact is, but i know if lumber can jump before hurricanes for boards and reinforcement supplys, i'm not surprised if the lumber market is being effected by this too.

OSB and plywood prices did jump a LOT more than regular lumber, even.

I've posted that link several times here.

You're the first to notice that VERY important little detail.

Wish I had time to elaborate, but feel free to take the ball and run with it.

They’re printing so much money they discontinued measuring how much money there is.

What is this?

Graph showing how much money is circulating. Went from 3 trillion or so to what 18 trillion in the past 2 years.

Took all the way to 2001 to pass 1 trillion.

More money in the system buying things, the price of things goes up. Goods are not unlimited but made up money is.

Thanks I appreciate you explaining. I skimmed over the abstract of it just didn't have time to look any of it up. We lost in 1913 when the century long fight against central banking was lost. People think the first great depression was bad, this will be the first GREAT depression. You see the thing is, they didn't discontinue the graph, they are only discontinuing the graphs public availability.

That was my response about 12 years ago. There are no expletives to adequately describe my reaction today.

This graph has sorta erased all hopium - It looks like the economy is going to crash hard. Biblical hard. Am I a Doomer now?

This seems unrecoverable...

I’ve read that there is a lot of building/renovations going on as people fled places like New York City and moved to the suburbs or other states and watch either their own new house or to fix up existing property. Couple that with the incessant demand to board up buildings, not just in Minneapolis, but almost every major city at some point or another multiple times I would imagine that has some impact.
