That's not necessarily a problem you can do much about though, it's just the nature of markets (and life in general) where some things just move slowly. Supply

That's not necessarily a problem you can do much about though, it's just the nature of markets (and life in general) where some things just move slowly. Supply trails demand or investment in supply was over-optimistic vs actual demand. There's some ways to deal with it like futures contracts and strategic reserves... or more aggressive gov intervention like how Quebec built their awful maple syrup cartel via forcing companies to stockpile supply centrally. But mostly there's some hard limits to how much you can optimize a market.
