Morgan Stanley says semiconductor shortage affecting auto industry nearly over

Meanwhile, they are paying more to the suppliers for parts and chips, and scarse magnesium prices are also going up. When the inventory goes back to normal levels, no doubt that the vehicles will have an adjusted higher MSRP.

It won't be long until there is an overabundance of chips and prices will go down accordingly. So much resources have been put into increasing manufacturing that it's inevitable that at some point when things normalize there will be more semiconductors than needed.
