But that's not even the point of this. It's not the company is greedy or not, it's this administration is causing this.
Oh I know. I was just trying to shed a bit of light on whether this company's decision was an attempt to take advantage and screw people over, or a genuine survival measure.
The root cause is ultimately the tariffs that will be imposed by the US government.
In reality the decision will be more nuanced, and this company will likely raise prices wherever it can whilst also securing long-term stock at current prices to both avoid the tariffs and increase margins to recover the capital quicker.
But yeah. It's all down to the government's tariffs.
