EVE General Discussion

My view is that I'm not entirely sure the increased demand for PLEX is going to matter that much in the end. Up until now people would buy Aurum, soon they'll switch over to PLEX, so the increased demand should be offset by increased supply. Of course, there is something going on in markets that allows for asset price bubbles--i.e. when the price of some asset becomes uncoupled from that assets intrinsic value. For example, experimental economics shows that in an experiment where there is an asset that pays out a dividend of $0.24/period and the experiment runs for 9 periods and participants are given various amounts of "cash" and the asset. The initial price of the asset should be $3.60, and it's price should fall from that initial value by $0.24 every turn. In fact, classical/rational expectations indicates there should be no trading at all really. After all, the price of the asset is going to be exactly equal to it's dividend payouts from that point forward (discounting is ignored as it is only 9 periods and there is not much time between periods). Yet in experiments the assets are often traded a prices well below their intrinsic value, then the price rises and overshoots it's intrinsic value at the time, and eventually crashes well before the 15th period--i.e. there is an asset bubble even when there is no uncertainty.

Nope.

Oh Look! It's this thread again...

Nobody on the CSM did any kind of insider trading. If they did I would be shouting it from the highest mountain tops for all to hear.

I wish I could like this post more than once. Conspiracy theorists are going to believe what they want to believe, but I still appreciate hearing CSM members openly dispute such nonsense.

This entire thread is ******* hilarious. You're literally spewing **** while shooting yourself in the foot for your own arguments you're presenting. Before I get to that though if we leaked anything why the hell wouldn't we have done it months ago? We were never informed when this dev blog was even going up but knew about it months in advance. There is no way we would have known about it going up the days leading up. Now how you're literally wrong and proved it yourself.

You point to the 20% increase as us buying up the market. Here's the thing. see those blue bars across the bottom? Those are the daily volume traded. Notice how it literally didn't change at all during the increase. It actually had a small decrease! So you're argument is shot. There is no backing of it at all. In fact, it supports we didn't leak anything because the market volume didn't change at all. PLEX is known to have waterfall effects in it's price so if anything it's much more likely plex sellers started to see the price going up (from natural market fluctuation) and decided to hold their plex while it was rising as any knowledgeable market person would do. This happens all the time in this market.

Also IF WE DID leak anything, plex is one of the single easiest items to track. Our accounts/alts are the most scrutinized in the game. Even if we told friends about it to get a benefit that **** is easy to track. Your argument is dead. Leave it in the grave and lay off the conspiracy koolaide awhile.

Distribution of wealth


Wealth inequality in the United States
Statistics[edit]

Distribution of net worth in the United States (2007).[17] The net wealth of many people in the lowest 20% is negative because of debt.[17] By 2014 the wealth gap deepened.


In 2007, the top 20% wealthiest possessed 80% of all financial assets.[18] In 2007 the richest 1% of the American population owned 35% of the country's total wealth, and the next 19% owned 51%. Thus, the top 20% of Americans owned 85% of the country's wealth and the bottom 80% of the population owned 15%. In 2011, financial inequality was greater than inequality in total wealth, with the top 1% of the population owning 43%, the next 19% of Americans owning 50%, and the bottom 80% owning 7%

...
Inherited wealth may help explain why many Americans who have become rich may have had a "substantial head start".[23][24]

---> You know, if you take away Americans inherited name, and seek forfeiture of their other rights, it of course does explain why their wealth is substantially less than those rich people the courts protect and should lose their trillions by the hundreds after the spoils of war.

Also , the 20-80 rule need not apply.

wealth = assets − liabilities

change of wealth = income − expense.

All that is required is to hold the CSM liable and have their assets seized and forfeited.
That way, their wealth will be reduced, or possibly so, if the equation works.
If the equation does not work, then their wealth will be used to compensate for the loss of ethic derived powers...

Change their wealth, so that the people getting income from PLEX can justify their expense to buy a Citadel as their home, instead of feeling like if it is a liablity and have it ransomed to the highest bidder.

The same goes for weapons and ships. The less PLEX they have & more liability , the less power of defense they'll have for their citadel homes.

& this also goes for their moral opportunities.

There are powers that be who know when the oppressed are unfairly denied.


Take away their ships, weapons and ability to defend themselves, in equal values, and they will lose credibility and the power to protect the value of those assets, credit and so on.

lol

you don't seem friendly.

It's not about being friendly or not, he's pointing out that your post makes no fcking sense. And it doesn't, so he's right.
