Same here. But I consider the possibility that shortages of
raw materials can lead to shortages of finished product --
effectively increasing demand over supply, thereby driving up
prices. But I might be wrong, or overly simplistic. I'm
certainly no economist. I prefer to leave such figuring up to
the academia nuts :-)
