In the event the market crashes or after patch mineral prices change drastically enough to affect profits I would prefer having the security of being able to buy new BPOs if need be as well as any additional needed minerals if I already have a current manufacturing run go through.

Reflections

Profit is a little lower than it could be, this is cause one item is being a pain to sell so I used buy order profit rather than sell order. I neglected to look at activity for this one specific item I have made, however it's still profitable to dump into buy orders. I am going to give it one more day of me 0.01isking before I move it to a different trade hub that has significantly lower activity regarding orders but quantity still is in the range I like.

The slightly above value for what I said would be for blueprints is because one item I need was completely absent in jita 4-4 so I spent a small amount on it's BPO and have made a large stock that should last me the duration of this bond.

Manufacturing costs is just the costs of me using public slots in a station. I am using a friend who is able to reliable move my items in a short time span so I can quickly put them on the market rather than waiting on red frog.

If there's any other numbers you would like to see included in the future just let me know and I'll make sure they get in there

If there is one thing i've learn from business is that there is always something that doesn't go to plan, regardless of how much planning is done.

To be honest the above is amazing to me as i have no aptitude for station trading/manufacturing goods to sell. needless to say i'm liking what i'm seeing.

Nice work Serene. Looking forward to the next update.

Several of the markets I was in had a sudden spike in their activity and a few crashed to where I was making rather low profits, I do anticipate them to jump back to their normal positions. I have started manufacturing a few more items so I purchased a few days of their minerals just a few hours ago and now await them to finish mid-week.

I am going to look into something to make tracking profit more easy for me, at this time I am using eve-mentat and using the profit % when the orders were fulfilled. If I cannot find anything that looks to suit my wants I'll just work on making my own.

You may have noticed how manufacturing is no longer listed on there, I am excluding that until the final report where I will show my numbers for the entire month. I plan on also including all taxes I paid on contracts and market fees.

As with any report I release feel free to voice any concerns/questions you have regarding it and I will happily address it.

Had one item crash enough to cause negative profit, I been holding onto it in hopes of the market coming back up but there is just more supply being put on the market than there is demand so I dropped it into sell orders when I thought it would be at it's highest. Thankfully it was only a 2.68%(15 million isk) loss so nothing too drastic, it was the bulk of some of last weeks mineral costs.

Current BPOs I have lying around are making enough profit for my liking so I didn't see the need to purchase any additional ones. I also discovered a small container with a bunch of BPOs I had in it so I started making a few small things that had a nice return rate.

Overall a nice week, no losses, market was quick to sell off my items without much 0.01 isking and profit was plentiful. I have paid Kraillach and Dean Ozuwara back their principal amounts(both 1.5bn) and their interest payments of 150m. I do feel I was pretty successful with this manufacturing bond and would like to continue it for another month so I am open to new investors, I will be editing the title to reflect this as well.

I managed to finally get a working/usuable installation of linux(Gentoo for those curious) installed on this Mac mini and it's running wonderfully thanks to VNC and a bit of duct tape.

The summary of the months activity coming up in a short bit!

Let's start off by addressing the "***" above there. When I went through and added up the minerals portion of this month through just the numbers I posted previously and the minerals stood out drastically at 7.4 billion ISK which really made me double check that I didn't add a week twice. Turns out one week I included a previous weeks minerals cause I double checked the minerals(and then everything else) in eve mentat which I was using for tracking profit in a somewhat easy manner and log my transactions. Everything was correct with the exception of minerals/components so I was glad that was all I got wrong on previous postings.

In case it wasn't really clear my overall feeling regarding this bond has been universal, with me feeling I am doing well and I feel the numbers back me up on this. I think after the second month I will set up a research POS to get some ME research done on the BPOs that would benefit the most from it. However I will use the profits from this month to fund that venture.

I couldn't think of any additional numbers to include so if anyone would like to see anything specific I'll respond with it for you.

Let the quest for a new round of investors begin!
