Market Problems: All worlds?

So, on White Giant very few products are in demand. I'm wondering if this is also going on in other worlds.

Possible causes: Production changes in corporations and players buying and selling large quantities through space travel.

Is there anything that we, as players can do to solve this?

Nope....the markets will have to work themselves out.

They work themselves out by alterations in supply and demand. That is what I am asking about.

I'm torn between reducing supply of products which are in oversupply and producing more which is in demand. The products which are in demand though tend to be in product groups which normally go through big swings.

As for space trade, is it better to really aim for an integrated interplanetary economy? This could take a while.

They have to work themselves out is right. They are the weirdest I have ever seen on the planet I play. it not just on planets. they will correct, but it is a time game for that.

Honestly, craig I think your can you help it out, well I think its the opposite here... Some are making it that way. All players can trade and ship things freely if they are a premium with many planets and empires/ents, so its fair game to manipulate that market to the good or to the bad.

What you get when you do what you say, is a bunch of uncoordinated moves that lead to a change to make the market way worse and might make it not auto correct as in the past. Of course the Game Master changes the corp structures too and some might have just found out they have 300 GY of built up supplies: point it can be from intent or non-intent, but the more that mess it up or make it better, will be like winning the lottery. It might help or make it way worse.

How many are you looking to buy? I have a very limited quantity on White Giant and Fearless Blue.

Germania and by extension WG will become the capital of potato production
