It's not possible for this stuff to adjust instantaneously. The economy takes a long time to move. Profit margins are cyclical; they will decrease as inflation creeps in and wages and capital costs rise at a rate higher than prices can increase. Input costs are extremely low right now.
Take a look at the data; we have 10 years of above average margins following 10 years of below average margins.
