Normal
I'm trying to do some guesswork as to when supply chains will return to "normal." They have to normalize as the average person's storage space is limited.Toilet paper for example, takes up a lot of space in cabinets and bins. Refrigerators can only stock so much food.Some very calorie dense foods such as dry rice and pasta can be stored in very large quantities without taking up much space, but even canned vegetables and other goods take up quite a bit of space in kitchen cabinets.This is a just long way of saying supplies will have to normalize as credit cards get maxed out, storage space maxed out. Even with people staying home far more, this means businesses and public facilities will require far less of those same resources.My guess is that the purchase glut and hoarding has already ended and supplies will be back to reasonable stock in about a months' time. Just a guess. If anyone has solid information to the contrary, I'd like to read up on it.
