I think the lack of mills, huge demand at retail, and the vertically-integrated timber co's are reaping the higher profits from their company-owned lands.

I think demand is out of whack and anyone that can take advantage of the situation is going to do it. From the retailers to the mills.
I remember when oil was hitting highs and people were talking about the imbalance in the supply demand equation and how it was going to stay high for a long time and wham! China hit a pothole and demand for oil was suddenly much much less and the price fell off a cliff.
Something’s coming to throw cold water on this demand for lumber- maybe a rise in interest rates; maybe the lessened stimulus, maybe the herd immunity to covid chills the appetite for home improvement ... maybe a bit of all of it but it’s coming. Not sure when but it’s coming.
Trees don’t grow to the sky

Price gauging is Fauci approved.

Covid has raised demand with home improvements, low interest rates and bored Americans.
That’s about 5% of it.

Gas prices dropped a little. I paid $2.41 last night. It was in the mid-$2.70’s.

Steel is way the heck up, at least scrap pricing due shortages. It is at 2008 levels up, except for stainless steel

Artifical surge in lumber pricing. The surge in lumber pricing is deliberate. Just like the surge in gasoline prices is deliberate. The tree huggers want us all to build our houses with walls (at least the exterior ones) constructed with layers of cat shite. Applied with a computer operated cat shite applicator no doubt.
