1) Pandemic depressed (demand) prices in virus effected services (travel, hotels), now demand is back so we have big price jumps
2) Sectors are affected, manufacturing: they assumed demand will fall and stay depressed, but this was a unprecedented situation, gov pumped money into the system and people couldn’t spend on services so they turned into manufacturing goods.
SO WE HAVE SUPPLU DEMAND IMBALANCES, but this will be temporary:
Demand, as the nature of consumption normalizes there will be less pressure on some constraint goods, on the supply side producers have already realized that this is not a typical recession demand will come back quicker than expected and they are in a good position to respond. =>we can not rely on April CPI report
