External factors such as government regulations, taxes, subsidies, and market shocks can also affect prices and prevent them from reaching equilibrium. Additionally, imperfect competition, such as monopolies or oligopolies, can distort prices away from the equilibrium level. Lastly, psychological factors, such as consumer behavior and perceptions, can also influence market prices and cause them to deviate from equilibrium.
