I've been in this game so long, seen so many shortages that I'm not even worried. Right now prices are high, manufacturers are switching production, and in 6 months there's going to be a glut of supply.

It's all a long game, folks. Play it long.

It takes about a decade (and $10s of billions) to bring new fabs online
