You are right, the companies holding the resource have the advantage when the cycle slows but historically they have sold finished products below cost during those periods. One exception mingh be Weyerhaeuser, they have timber holdings going back nearly 100 years that have very low basis though recent acquisitions have diluted this advantage somewhat. The logging costs will pretty much stay unchanged overtime.
