[quote:Anonymous Coward 82504804:MV81MTU3Mjg0Xzk0NzE0MzQ4X0YzQ0ZDRkZG] You may get lucky and get some lumber for less than you've been paying, but high lumber prices are here to stay. Every step of the process, from felling to delivery involves gasoline or diesel. Big box stores have been selling fir for right around $1.50 a board foot and that rarely reflects any changes in the commodities market. [/quote]
Original Message
Lumber dealers have experienced a seesaw of emotions over the past couple of years.
During the pandemic, supply chain issues and a rise in home projects caused lumber prices to skyrocket.
But a shifting macroeconomic environment has left many dealers stumped, per WSJ, with lumber futures dropping 52% since early March.
