Explanation:

Supply shock refers to a sudden event that changes the supply of a product or services. It could be a negative or positive shock

A negative supply shock is caused by a decrease in supply while a positive supply shock is caused by an increase in supply.

As negative supply shock reduces output causing an increase in price while a positive supply shock increases output causing a decrease in price.
