Good morning. Investors and traders alike have largely been focused on the moves being made by the Federal Reserve this year. While that's important, so are other factors. The Fed is trying to bring down inflation. While that's mostly a monetary phenomenon, some goods and services remain high because demand is strong and supply is tight. As long as that trend continues, there will be pressure on prices, no matter where interest rates end up. And one big factor impacting global production of goods is China's zero-covid policy. The country is quick to harshly lock down any city where the virus pops up. Doing so has been the biggest driver of supply chain issues in the past two years. And as long as this policy is in place, a full supply chain recovery is unlikely. That could mean 3-5 more years before we get back to a pre-pandemic, fully-functioning global supply chain. Look for opportunities to find where these items may be prone to a shortage, and look to profit accordingly.
