You're telling me shelves are emptying. Is that because stock have yet to be replenished or there is no ability to restock? Are you making assumptions from what you're seeing or have you spoken to the manager/business owner?
Past 3 days of visiting my walmart
If any of you have closer contact with him, please, let him know I would love to ask him about his career and political plans, I follow him for a long time
Dude, come on. You're making assumptions.
Annecdotal expriences doesnt mean my assumptions arent completely unbased
Thanks @Dragonlance
You arent wrong i am making assumptions
@Fanny Anzai * Dr.Owlet np just letting u know in advance
And when the shelves get restocked, what then?
That doesnt mean distributors and suppliers arent feeling the heat rn
And with the recent restrictions on travel
And market going in the shitter
Its pretty obvious what will happen
The breadth of your analysis is visiting your local Walmart for 3 days.
Dude
In a city of 50k is a good sample size
Its anecdote
But it is telling
What does travel restrictions have to do with food supply chain? Goods are largely unaffected in any travel restrictions being imposed, whether by the US or anywhere else.
No it's not
@Lidomite our soybean imports from china, rice imports
For example on food
What? The US EXPORTS soybeans and rice to China
What are you talking about import?
Rice doesnt natively grow in the usa
Corn and wheat does
Im not an expert i will say that and yes the USA wont starve at first
I am sure the supplies will continue and I've heard from employers of Costco just doing my normal biweekly shopping earlier today and I had finished all my previous stock. Didn't get the bread I like and no paper towel but they restocking on the beginning of the week and I didn't try other markets in town. Tomorrow maybe I still have rags. And toilet paper for another two weeks or more
But the pressure is on the market rn. The fear mongering among the Media doesnt help either
The US is food self-sufficient.
You probably buy grains from south America as many fruits and the things still moving
Either this is a panic nothing burger
" Other countries in the exclusive club of self sufficiency: Canada, Australia, Russia, India, Argentina, Burma, Thailand, the U.S. and a few small others."
Or the second wave in the winter
Will be the death of us all
What market are you talking about?
Just stop
STOP
The food market is not the same as the stock market
