fluctuate for several reasons. Firstly‚ the market demand curve holds other things constant; it does need be stable over time. If something happens to alter the quantity demanded at any given price‚ the demand curve shifts. Any change that increases the quantity demanded at every price shifts the demand curve to the right and is called an increase in demand. Any change that reduces the quantity demanded at every price shifts the demand curve to the left and is called a decrease in demand. Similarly
