You might want to crack open a basic economics book and read the first chapter on Supply and Demand.

Take an example that we can all feel right now. Oil. As unrest in the Middle East worsens and the potential for oil availability to drop increases....gas prices go through the roof.

With the Z, the destruction of the cars that were about to ship and closing of factories will lead to longer delivery times for people placing new orders (they'll have to rebuild and honor those whose cars got tsunami'd). Cars at the dealer may sell for slightly more since people who may have placed an order would now rather buy a car on the lot instead of wait longer.
