Im a carpenter and there seemed to be kind of a lull during the worst parts of covid. We still had steady work, but people were worried about the future of their job, having people inside their home, etc. . Now that things seem to be going back to normal, everyone wants these projects done all at the same time. There is also the fact that lumber mill slowed production during covid and they are trying to catch back up. At one point 40% of all the sawmills were closed. For a while it was damn hard to find a piece of pressure treated lumber.
But for the more conspiracy-minded people, it seems like the lumber companies are now artificially reducing supply in order to charge ridiculous prices

It's called JewAnon, they can't help but see long-nose in everything.

Yeah, that was pretty terrible for a bit. And again, it seemed everyone wanted a deck at the same time.
Yeah we had two decks back to back andI was driving hours to go to four or five different lumber yards to get everything we needed. Crazy times
Inflation will raise the price of everything for at least another year. Normal everyday goods will be affected first.
Also, Trump set in motion tons of construction.
Also, you will see other countries who aren't tanking their own economies on purpose will be able to afford the lumber, altering the availability. In NZ, they don't get to buy their own lumber even though they produce great material. NZ residents can only by the low grade stuff. The rest is shipped out of country.
You clearly dont grasp how much forest there is
Or how much of the area that burns each year in "catastrophic wildfires" is actually overdue for a stand-replacing event.
See profits pictures over most recent 12 months for biggest OTC timber / milling companies.
Thank you, I came here to link your comment.
I've shared it around pretty widely and I looked for a local lumber purveyor who does a great job for the community.
Top notch, blue collar baller stuff, man. Cheers.
Its the saw mils and the price of transportation
jews..
The storage locations are stockpiling and not selling. Driving the price up. I would say if you have to buy or build a place it’s best to wait a year or two so the prices can drop.
A) Production slowed down at beginning of COVID.
B) Everyone put money into their home in 2020; go into any home improvement store anytime of day and they're still packed.
C) Businesses boarded up windows across the country
D) New housing market is booming with townhomes and single family homes, especially when everyone took a break at the beginning of COVID.
E) Supply and demand
