One of the reasons for large shortages is that some corporations, for longer periods of time, did not sell their products on the market.

These corporations kept large quantities of products in the corporation and needed to support them financially to keep them from closing for lack of any income.

Also stocking of products in countries and enterprises contributes to these shortages.

stocking of products in countries and enterprises is part of the game from the start and many strategies have been developed around it.

stocking in corporations was always limited to about 15 months of production.
It started increasing when we have made it possible, by mistake, to increase quantities without any limits.

corporations are now reducing their holdings to about 15 months of production capacity. As a result, many product are offered on the markets and some products show a surplus.

we think that when all corporations are down to 15 month worth of product, the markets might return to higher shortages.

Many wind turbine corporations were not selling the wind turbines on the market.

we had a discussion here several weeks ago and complaints about wind turbines not being sold.
we have found out, at the time, that players turned off automatic selling by corporations and caused, sometimes unintended, the corporations to keep their products unsold.

After we explained, only very few turned the product retention in
corporations, off.

Now, with corporations automatically selling a lot of the retained products, we see many wind turbines being sold.

some times, the huge shortages of wind turbines turned into a surplus.

Good news if you have a shortage of wind turbines.
