SHIT JUST BROKE. HUGE WAVE OF PRICE INCREASES COMING. PREPARE ACCORDINGLY.
I own a chemical import and distribution business. Every time there is a disruption in global trade that leads to massive inflation I feel it 2-3 months before the headlines. Things have been tense for weeks but overnight the dam broke. Prices are up 20-50% on some products overnight. This is the stuff that goes into making the stuff that makes the world go round. Fertilizer inputs, antifreeze, break fluid, bobble head dolls. All of it is downstream of my business. Could just be a blip but it feels like it felt in Q12022.
