tech price spike leads to temporary decrease in t2 demand

lessened t2 demand means less demand for all other t2 mats

neod (and others) drop in price

i should add that as technetium continue to rise, all other t2 mats will soak up some of that overall t2 price increase by falling in value. i'm not sure what neod is doing right now over the sort term (dont care enough to look), but it will be on a general downward trend for as long as tech is on a general upward one.

This.

On top of people using less t2 stuff, people are reducing their inventory right now. It's not good to keep excess inventory when you expect an eventual price crash. Before, where I might have had 8 scimitars sitting around, I've now sold off 6 of them, and just have 2.

Granted, this can only go on for so long - inventories can only drop for so long. But I'm guessing there is a lot of excess inventory out there. I know I had a lot.

I dunno, i get a strange feeling this whole OTEC deal is just a way for certain groups to consolidate themselves before f***ing the rest of the CFC over

Tech = Ice
Other moon goo = Pi goods
T2 modules = POS fuel/POS structures.


The same *exact* pattern is lowering the price of PI goods. While nobody has a cartel on Ice, hulkageddon has severely reduced the supply.

In the cat-and-mouse game that is low sec, there is no shame in learning to be a better mouse.
