glut
Too much available
A glut is an excessive supply of something, more than can be absorbed or used: a glut of oil on the market.
The verb glut means to supply or fill to excess, often to the point of satiation or disgust.
You can glut yourself on rich food, and a market can be glutted with cheap imports.
The word carries connotations of overindulgence and surfeit—too much of something that might otherwise be desirable.
