    Quick and dirty analysis of Doordash prices over the last I don’t care. Doordash recognized that they had two markets. A captive market (people who are stuck in their houses for whatever reason, for example) and an elastic market (lazy people who want tacos, for example). Depending on the day, I’m a little of column a, a little of column b so no judgements here. It just looks more and more like Doordash decided to take advantage of their captive market since their elastic market actually responds to price shocks.
