English term or phrase: scarcity value

Definition from Wikipedia:
Scarcity value is the economic factor that increases an item's relative price based more upon its relatively low supply. Whereas the prices of newly-produced manufactured products depends mostly on the cost of production (the cost of inputs used to produce them, which in turn reflects the scarcity of the inputs), the prices of many goods -- such as antiques, rare stamps, and those raw materials in high demand -- reflects the scarcity of the products themselves.

Example sentence(s):

The improving economic situation makes up for fairly small borrowing needs increasing the scarcity value for Sweden’s triple-A bonds Incisive Media Ltd.
Then there is the simple fact that about ten times more apartments have been built than villas since 2002, so villas have a scarcity value as well as being perceived as the better lifestyle choice. Axia Fx
If it's common for a company to miss a profits forecast, then, by definition, it's unusual for a company rarely to miss a forecast. Such a company, therefore, has a scarcity value and its shares should be sought-after. The Financial Times Limited

Notes to answerer

Svein Hartwig Djaerff Your conclusion is correct, but the definition stinks! The point is not that demand is large, but that supply is scarce!

Renate Radziwill-Rall Header Valves

florence metzger la vanne du collecteur ......

florence metzger nourrice/caisse en charge : header tank... header : collecteur

Tony M That is one version of 'nourrice', though I think here you are actually looking at 'nourrice en charge'. BUT we have already had several questions (and I have encountered the term in my own documents) on 'nourrice', where it was definitely nothing like a 'header tank', so I think there is a wider range of possible meanings.

florence metzger nourrice ne convient pas au contexte de return supply... par contre collecteur d'alimentation et collecteur de retour sont cohérents...

Hello Tony it's a Emergency Operations Procedure for CRAH (computer room air handler) document

Hi Olivier, it's a Emergency Operations Procedure for CRAH (computer room air handler) document

Mayca Fernandes Santos CONTEXT: Emergency Operations Procedure for CRAH (computer room air handler) document. The information I had about the "header" was "It’s a central connection for the chilled water pipes" I also have for example " Chilled Water Header - Supply / Return Motorized Valves Fail to Open /Communication Failure"

I thought it was "eau réfrigérée" but found also "eau froide"

knapphetsverdi

Definition from NTNU:
Knapphetsverdi viser til den økonomiske markedsprisen av den knappe ressursen. En
ressurs’ markedsverdi har sammenheng med deres knapphet. Jo mindre tilgang det er
på en ressurs, desto knappere er den, og desto høyere markedspris har den, forutsatt at
ytre faktorer, slik som f.eks. forbrukernes preferanser og utvinningskostnad. Dette
tydliggjøres ved å se på tilbuds- og etterspørselskurvene.

Example sentence(s):

Kraftprisen (kraftverdien) er i modellen sammensatt av en knapphetsverdi på energi (vannmagasin), og en knapphetsverdi på effekt (turbiner, rør). - Olje- og Energidepartementet
