It's flawed analogies either way, but a better analogy would be you are a store owner with many branches. The worlds largest pepper buyer walks into your store and buys your entire supply. You call your other branches and tell them to change the price on your own inventory because you are assuming that the worlds largest pepper buyer doesnt need just one stores worth of peppers.


Agree that all the analogies are flawed, although funny. Just as the market made this I'm sure the market will find a solution if it really is a problem.
