Competition

The economic principle of competition states that when supply is low and demand high:

 

•Excess profits will result

•Excess profits will attract more sellers

•More sellers will increase supply

•Increased supply will reduce profits

•Eventually equilibrium will be reached

•The opposite is also true

 

Profits tend to increase competition.  The more profitable an enterprise is, the more competition will be created.
