Talking of price rises, the cost of fencing and wood generally seems to have
gone up a lot recently.

That was last years news Brian. A lot of timber comes from
Russia where export restrictions were already in force after
Putins 2014 invasion of the Crimea, plus some really massive
wildfires in the last couple of years in Siberia.

I paid 14 quid for a new handle for a paving maul last week, apparently
a couple of weeks earlier they were 8 quid. Everything is going through
the roof. I might have to start looking after stuff :)

Well its worse again now. You know I get the feeling that almost anything
happening in the world will be used to increase margins by many of the
larger companies who wholesale to the shops etc. Greedy gannet syndrome?

I doubt it. And if that is true, we will see it in their balance sheets.

Doesn't work like that in the real world, it's too competitive for that.

Correct.

What I see at Tesco is a plethora of price labels announcing that the
goods are being sold at the same (low) price as at Aldi. This is
something relatively new in the world of UK retail.

The problem I'm seeing in the local discounters is that they no longer
have stock of the cheaper items or their "own brand" items.

This month, and in many stores, what seems to be in short supply is
detergents - everything from no-name shampoos. no-name washing up
liquids, no-name clothes washing powders and gels etc. All these
usually sell at a half to a third of the price of some of the well
advertised branded products.

Aldi and LIdl both still do and so do our 3 majors.

That is obviously due to the fact that when there is a shortage
of what is used to make supermarket stuff, it clearly makes
sense for the manufacturers to make the brand name stuff
because their margins are much higher on the brand name stuff.

And because with a big increase in the price of stuff in supermarkets,
more are prepared to try the no name stuff to see if it is satisfactory.

I think this is the new normal. We are going to see a step increase in
prices of around 40% and a corresponding reduction in living standards.
That will impact the marginal industries that depend on discretionary
consumer spending.
In short stagflation - higher unemployment, prices and interest rates
and a reduction in living standards.

Even though the reported rate of inflation is actually higher [in some
cases, a lot higher] in most EU countries than in the UK?
