Ok. If is a big word.
Prices were high as hell, then they came down 1.5 yrs ago. Prices on products did not, they went up, way up. Gas prices have only dropped again the last 2-3 weeks.the window between and 3 weeks after this, prices still went up snd are not dropping.
In s perfect world of honest people and no greed and no tariffs, I’d agree. But where not there either.
So we had examples of price change both ways and they only climb.
Tariffs are superseding logic, therefore to make a reasonable prediction they must be included in the equation. Not only tariffs causing issues, you have companies using it as an excuse to hit us with 100% markup, instead of 20-50%.
So as long as the demand for their products exist, despite tariffs, they ain’t budging.
Even if tariffs go away, they will try to keep it high unless we stop buying.
