Capacity risk in the short term? ($100)/msf in 5 weeks???

Capacity risk in the short term? ($100)/msf in 5 weeks???With the drop-off in share price I wonder how much risk there is the industry over-shooting.  Again.  

I think it's Tolko, Roy O Martin, Norboard x1, and one other re-starting.  Norbord's Scotland mill is fine, that's a different market.

I wonder if this has spooked the market.  The price drop has been exactly $100/msf in 5 weeks.  See below.    It's terrifying.  I see that has indicitive, possibly, of excess supply.  Yet, hosuing starts are strong and we have a fibre shortage in many areas.  So, it ought not be a long term issue, maybe just a fickle market?

RetiredDCF has excellent data sources -- please keep the analyst snippets coming as that's far better than my thoughts.

Here's the nunbers in $USD.
