The Big Picture of Supply and Demand

NS

The arrival of an era where supply surpasses demand

and all the ripple effects that follow


The obvious predictions and common-sense reasoning of "what is there even to say" — 


until the day of the event actually arrives, 

the parties to that event, it seems, can never be the first to notice.


Through waves of innovation,
in an era immersed in production technology, 

the issues arising from excess supply could only be treated, in themselves,
as a happy problem to have.


Products followed that path,
services followed that path,
and the real-estate market seems to be walking no different a line.
