Have you found that whether it's nonferrous metals, or our plastic sheet, or other industries are all calling for price increases? Why?
In addition to the exchange rate, raw materials and other factors, the main reason for this price increase is international politics and finance. As a result of the epidemic, many countries are constantly issuing currency to try to alleviate the economic crisis caused by the epidemic. The United States, with its currency hegemony, passed the crisis on to the whole world by issuing a large number of US dollars. All these factors make us have to raise the price to maintain the profit.
Therefore, price increasing is an inevitable trend in the future, just a matter of more or less.
In my opinion, the current price is likely to be the lowest price for a long time in the future. Moreover, it will be difficult to call back, becasue it is impossible to take bake the US dollars issued by USD and the currency issued by other countries.
In addition, the major shipping companies have also joint to raised price recently, I hope you can make resonable order&shiping plans.
It is a difficult time now, but opportunities and risks often coexist. Those who can persist will surely get rich rewards in the future!
Finally, I would like to end as Shelley's poem:
If winter comes, can spring be far behind?
