You admit that corporations are always greedy, so how is out of the realm of possibility that an excuse like supply chain issues (which have since been resolved) would provide the perfect opportunity for these greedy corporations to jack up prices far beyond those underlying causes and get away with it?

The margin hasn’t changed much
So that means the corporations got the same % on their sales
What you thought would happen: thing X cost the corp $10 and they sold it for $15. When it costs $20 they sell it for $25
What actually happened: it cost $20 and they sold it for $30
That’s because investors hate it when the margin goes down
What’s the source of this graph?

A twitter post isn’t a good source. Where are they getting their data from? What are “weights” in this case?
