Since the onset of the global Covid-19 pandemic, lumber prices have been tumultuous. As the world came to a screeching halt, wood prices collapsed. However, home sales and remodels skyrocketed by summer, as did lumber prices. From supply chain issues to labor shortages, lumber has been bundled with a hefty price tag these past few years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Wall Street Journal reported<\/a> lumber prices are at their lowest level in over two years, down over 70 percent from the peak price only six months ago. The demand for lumber has lowered due to a decrease in home sales and housing starts, which are down 13 percent<\/a> from their decade-high peak in April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Back to where the price was before the pandemic, the collapse of lumber prices is viewed by some as an indicator of a sharp slowdown in construction and a decrease in inflation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michael Goodman, director of Melville, NY-based lumber wholesaler Sherwood Lumber Corporation, said, \u201cAll of the urgency over the past two years – \u2018give me everything you can\u2019 – that\u2019s basically over. Lumberyards are not scared of the price going up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the housing and remodeling market boomed in 2021, supply-chain disruptions caused lumber prices to soar to a record of roughly $1,700 per 1K board feet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The government recently delivered a crimp on inflation, a 75-bps rate increase, which has also affected the price of lumber. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said, \u201cWe\u2019ve had a time of a red-hot housing market all over the country. The deceleration in housing prices that we\u2019re seeing should help bring prices more in line with rents and other housing-market fundamentals, and that\u2019s a good thing. For the longer term, what we need is supply and demand to get better aligned, so that housing prices go up at a reasonable level, at a reasonable pace, and people can afford houses again. So, we probably in the housing market have to go through a correction to get back to that place.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
