When there is a shortage of goods, it means that the quantity demanded for the good is higher than the quantity supplied for the good, thus, the supply and demand are not in equilibrium. Because the good is in such great demand, sellers can usually increase the price of the good without losing business. The price will rise, but as price rises, because of the increase in price, the quantity demanded by consumers will fall, the quantity supplied will rise, and, of course, because the market is always striving to be in equilibrium, it naturally moves back toward the equilibrium point between supply and demand.
