    Suppliers do not create demand lol

    Some of us were adults in 08 when lack of demand crippled the world

      I was 21. I remember.

      Im not saying demand doesnt fuel supply.

      Im only saying supply can create demand.

        Supply can create demand

        Sure, with very specialized things like highways.

        Not for most goods. In no way is that how money is spent within a company.

          I guess the example i gave of folding phones bares no weight in this discussion?

          A not very popular form of phone that very frw people asked for being created and despite minimal interest it is still gettig made. The galaxy fold 5 came out recently. And google just made a folding phone. Many other companys: Huawei, xiomi, oppo and more have made folding phones. And adverts for these devices are only just making their way to the main stream.

          Perfect example of supply genrating demand as people are talkkng about them jow, and becoming interested. Sales of folding phones are increasing steadily.

          But i guess thats just not how it works eh?
