Hi
After looking at many items on the market ie ships, minerals , moduals - Ive come to the conclusion that ..
1. Plex has the closest probability to preserving your ISK buying power in a passive sense. Also it has the added feature of being a reasonable currency hedge ! ( Iam looking @ you Canadian / Aussie dollar )
2. A rare & highly sort after ship that will never be re-released eg Guardian Vexor or Silver Magnate etc ... will generally rise in value as the economy continues to grow ! ( and like wise fall if and when EVE reaches peak ISK )
So those are my thoughts .. any further comments ?
And thanks for all the input. |

I took a quick look at Maelstrons, Abaddons, Tengus, Guardians, Scimitars, Sabres, former tier2 and tier3 battlecruisers, carriers, dreads, freighters, and I see overwhelmingly price drops over the past six to 12 months with few exceptions.
I would not liberally throw the "inflation / deflation" word.
They are generally intended for currency changes of value, while what we periodically see in EvE is simply called "summer slump". Add the "recent" minerals and ice based patch speculations (that is the most important base materials for everything non T2/3) and you see a summer slump plus a slowpokes panic sale of their held assets.

Personally I'd split my isk into 3 piles. Ice, a mix of Cheap battleships and the like (basically under priced minerals), and plex. One of the 3 will have gained in value when you come back, and you can ride out the other 2 cycles. Former forum cheerleader CCP, now just a hopeful small portion of the community. |

Ships ? Minerals ? Plex ? anything else ?
many thanks
park it in something guaranteed to go up on a long-term timescale, like Guidance Systems. check their build cost vs jita price. @pmchem on twitter || GARPA || Goonswarm Economic Warfare Cabal |

PLEX is the closest, as it should rise with inflation via CCP. Now keep in mind the correlation isn't perfect as there is a time lag between the market and when CCP will respond. |

Actually, since PLEX have been force capped below 600M, they don't provide a very good guarantee of long term dependable ISK parking. Auditing | Collateral holding and insurance | Consulting | PLEX for Good Charity

Sure about that? People used to say that at 400, 500. I think CCP's concern is the rate of increase vrs any particular price level. That was the impression I got from the FanFest presentation this year. Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.-á-á- William Pitt |

It would be a help to know, about how many ISK you are talking.
Depending on that value, options like specific expensive or rare blueprints (T2 BPOs as example) might be worth thinking about.
Something that has no or little supply, could be a longterm investment that fluctuates very little or isn't going to lose value. Just make the right choices.
I was gone for almost an year "unwillingly". As a trader I had many things and as this was unplanned, no control over what I had at that time. The things that haven't lost their value or fluctuated a lot over this year, was big ships, like Jump Freighters and blueprints. High-end implants (those 800M+) seem also to be able to count on their value.
Something unusual: Investing into a character that you would resale after you are back, might be an option too, if wisely choicen.
Personally I would stay away from PLEX for reasons mentioned here and some more. There is no need to move stuff, because now you can push it! |
