I found the following sentence in a CNN News digest book -
With supply high and demand low, consumers can now buy genuine, proper champagne at discount supermarkets in Britain for only $16.00 or $17.00.
I understand when we say high supply and low demand but why are the words reversed in the above sentence?
Is it also ok to say the following or does it change the meaning or emphasis?
With high supply and low demand, consumers can now buy genuine, proper champagne at discount supermarkets in Britain for only $16.00 or $17.00.
Is it possible to start the sentence with "Since" or "Because" as well?
Also, doesn’t genuine have the same meaning as proper in the above case?
Thanks.
