Inside this issueThe COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated supply chain issues, creating supply and demand shocks that stressed the system.

With our currently supply chain situation, even a localized disruption (say, a drought in Taiwan) can cannonball into major ripples down the line (like making computer processing units, or CPUs, prohibitively expensive worldwide).
