Chipotle's supply of avocados have reduced and because of this the price of their food has increased. This involves a non-price determinant which is because it became harder to obtain a product its price increased which also caused the price of another product to increase.

I also choose this article because it was a good article about supply and i also like to eat at chipotles

P3.01 Favorite Article. Temitopes article is my favorite article because its about chipotle. This article covers pretty much all the aspects that we have learned so far. It shows demand, reply and elasticity all because of how chipotle increased the price because of the low supply of avocado.

This article looks at the Elasticity of Demand and Supply for oil. The increased costs of the production and higher prices are not leading to a fall in demand, but instead a fall in the elasticity of demand.

This article fits in my opinion very well to the topic of elasticities. It deals with price elasticity of both supply and demand for oil. The author is concerned with the increasing inelasticity of supply: "reserves we're now exploiting are not only more expensive to develop, but they also take much longer between the time the first well is drilled and the when the first oil is produced". There's also a graph in the article which shows the constant fluctuations of both supply and demand for oil, and how the American oil supply struggles to adjust itself to American demand for oil.

This article addresses the changes that have occurred in the oil market over the past ten years. The author claims that changes in the demand of oil have increasingly been playing a role in maintaining the supply/demand balance. He argues that these changes will be burdensome to our economy unless the demand for oil is made more flexible. According to the article, there is not a shortage of oil. Today, due to rising oil prices, we are able to exploit oil reserves which were previously too expensive to exploit. Since these new oil reserves are more expensive to develop and take longer to access, the time it takes for oil supply to respond to changes in price is increasing as well. This means that "...the oil is becoming less elastic..." meaning that "a large change in price produces a small change in supply." In regards to the elasticity of demand, "the elasticity of oil reflects the options we have to using oil for our daily needs." Our ability to reduce oil consumption is fairly limited in the short term, but increases over the long term. However options for reducing oil consumption over any time period are often inconvenient. Reductions in demand due to high prices can be called demand destruction (a permanent move down the demand curve toward reduced demand) which can be detrimental to the economy. This is why people such as the media and politicians wish to have supply adapt to changes in demand instead. However, "there are also limits to the ability of oil supply to adjust." Oil is not easily accessible. Because oil supply has become less elastic, prices has had to become more volatile to force market adjustments. The author concludes by suggesting ways that the elasticity of oil demand can be increased and the pain of demand destruction decreased.

This article although an opinion piece is made up of many subtitles, the one I chose to focus on is Roosting chickens and Fed Bashing, It talks about how Druckenmiller keeps predicting economic dooms due to rising interest rates since he closed his business. Personally I feel this is like the quote we got that says, "looking at statistics...to save himself from having ignorance foisted on him", this article is about Krugman using his on look on statistics to see if Druckenmiller's predictions are accurate since some can say they were and others can say they weren't. Krugman gathers his knowledge from past experiences with 2008 crash and The Great Depression; with my own knowledge of the Great Depression and things that contributed to it's solution this drives me to say that government intervention and spending are what's needed to fluctuate the economy ( hence why people argue WWII was the real solution to the Depression due to it's massive spending).
