I wonder when china will cower and buy more Australian coal :popcorn: But factories in guangdong starving for power is a disaster heading into winter. There is some kind of big bubble inflating, with energy, commodities and shipping costs. --- End quote --- My friend was saying scrap prices were way down, even on copper despite prices of new materials being way up. That was around 6 months ago though so I don't know if it's still the case. |

My company recently started preparing for another wave of price increases in 2022, after we got projections from our component suppliers (NXP, ST, Cypress,... basically all of them) |

It's also probably that manufacturers will try to keep the chip shortage going as long as they can, in a sort of unspoken price fixing scheme. No one is in a hurry to lower prices back to normal levels, increase volume yes, but not lower prices. |

Seems so. Look at this ! "Order today, get them after 5 Years" And it seems to be an official delivery date from ST, I suppose. |
