The problem of increasing transportation costs is very often the cause and this is very clearly influenced by the increase in fuel prices so that it also has an impact on increasing prices for all other goods that are often consumed by all people. This really needs to be given better attention by the government because I am sure that not all people are ready to face this unbalanced economic situation in the long term. Moreover, the core of the problem has also been well detected, namely the increase in fuel prices in each country.
An increase in energy prices which would in turn, affect the transportation of goods and raw materials could very well have a hand in the rise in the prices of goods. But I doubt it’s often the cause of rise in prices. Not trying to downplay the fact that cost of transportation could also affects prices but money spent in the purchase of raw materials as well as the actual production costs are more likely to affect the prices of goods.
I believe that increase in energy prices affect so many sector that it sometime affects the price of goods much more than anticipated, there are many cases where quite literally a small amount of increase could affect the overall price of goods tremendously but when the price of energy is decreasing the price of these goods aren't reducing instead they just stay.
thats the silly thing with current pricing of many goods, even more so with basic needs.
there is reason why many country always on the lookout of the price of the fuel, to prevent much more inflation from seeping into their economy.
You're on to something enormous, truly enormous. Energy prices are the economic system's pulse. When they rise, it causes actual shockwaves to ripple through every industry. and products? Oh, don't even start with the stuff. A minor increase in energy causes the price of things to suddenly and dramatically rise. But do the prices of these things also decrease when energy prices fall? They don't, though. They simply sit there, taking advantage of the elevated position
Businesses strive to make the most money possible in this crazy environment. And I do understand. But it's the common man who feels the pinch. Countries are wise; they constantly monitor fuel prices. They know the domino effect it can have. Inflation is like a shadow that is constantly on the prowl. We must constantly be alert, ready, and organized. We must make sure that everyone benefits from the economy, not just the major players. Let's control those costs so that everyone has a better future
