(Axios) "Egg prices plunging as bird flu subsides and shortages dissipate"

Not sure I’d hang my hat on that one.

FWIW - Earlier this week my local CostCo was out of eggs, with none expected until later later in the week. They had repurposed the walk-in egg cooler to display other dairy products.
 
Cheaper than what last year or last week??!!
Sure?

 
for what actions?

I guess for killing all the chickens during Biden years and then somehow managing to get egg prices down - all the blame, all the credit, right ?

Christians expected this, with their holiday coming up.

Others who ignore religious dates will be caught off guard, for sure. Happens all the time.
 
:(

Maybe the manager of your local market is screwing people over on purpose? They are certainly paying less for eggs; if they are selling them for the same price as a few months ago they are just screwing customers.

That sucks.

Or, perhaps demand came back. "Supply & Demand", and all that.

That's not the MAGA metric. Whenever anything bad happened, MAGA blamed Biden. Whenever there was recovery, MAGA credited anything but Biden. Just using your own standards here.

Though consumer prices aren't really down.

I imagine that the manager knows that they can demand any price they want, since they control supply.

Absolutely screwing over shoppers is probably something they do regularly.
 

So record highs then? :D
Seems to be some confusion among people who can't read data, for sure.


Lower prices are awesome, for sure. Some stores continue to gouge their customers... **** them. Billionaire asshole store owners who pay less for eggs and charge more suck. Glad they are losing their shit in the stock market.

Yeah, let us know when we actually get lower prices, instead of running on record highs.
 
What’s funny is that the price quoted by that market research firm is even higher than the all-time high price noted in the CPI report.

Right? Even as prices are dropping.


Seems they have trouble understanding the data. Must be complex.
 
You're confusing "retail" with "wholesale."

Wholesale prices have declined considerably. You should speak to your local retailers' management to inquire as to why their prices aren't coming down yet. I would imagine it has to do with a delay between supplier costs and when the eggs already purchased hit the shelves.

I'm thinking the current "resurrection" in today's pricing might have something to do with a different type of Resurrection 2K years ago!

Prices for consumers are rising, not dropping.

Already have lower prices. The several threads on this site show that; multiple people have been reporting their local prices. Eggs have dropped like 18% where I shop. Worst reported has been prices remained the same...

Not according to data, and the responses on the other threads where people have reported the prices they have been paying.
