Lumber is down like crazy.

Good, my current renovation project requires wood. T&G Pine boards still aren't cheap.

Yeah, most plywood based stuff is still pretty expensive too.

Here’s one for you: A relative is in the construction business in the Seattle area, working exclusively on hi-rise buildings. It’s been very, VERY lucrative for him. Well, they just got the announcement that a large project is being cancelled before the building is actually done. And it is happening in a couple of other projects as well. Apparently the WFH popularity is finally hitting commercial building developers in seattle.

i.e. the collapse has started.
