Question: Why is titanium carbide moving faster than the other 3 races of plates?
I didn't want to do this but...
BECAUSE OF FALCON.

Heh, I remember when you said Tech might reach a stable 30K by Christmas I thought you were overestimating its chances a little. Silly me 
Not that this is anywhere close to stable yet but still it's a damned impressive performance...
Actually, right now, it seems to be relatively stable at 41k buy and 46k sell 
Seems like people that own tech started to smell the roses and are getting wiser 
Confirming that Technetium is at 45k
also confirming that I may have just **********d to the market screen
Nooo don't do that D:
...save that for when it hits 150k

Technetium bubble has been popping hard for the last 2 days or so. Now's the time to short your inventory and add to the chaos
I hope it continues! I need new stockpiles :D

Yeah, sure, some types of T2 ships are necessary in some circumstances, but they are mostly the combat support, not the mainstay//DPS of the fleet.
I guess you could bring in a fleet of Zealots for DPS, but then again, wouldn't Apocalypses or Abbadons be better overall for that role most of the time ? Granted, not the best of examples, but you get the idea - you don't always absolutely need a very T2-heavy fleet when mostly-BSs will do just fine too.
T2 ships are used pretty extensively in lowsec and faction warfare, particularly the smaller varieties.
In lowsec a BS is still more cost efficient than a HAC in many cases, but the decreased mobility of the battleship often makes it a poor choice for solo and small gang combat as it lacks the ability to get out in a hurry, easily getting swarmed by smaller, faster ships.
Recons are another shiptype that definitely has a niche that cannot be filled by T1 ships in low security space.
Currently the newly buffed pirate faction ships have cause a little shift away from T2 vessels, but their prohibitive price means this shift is fairly minor.
While lowsec generally does not see massive 500-man fleets getting blown up, it would be a mistake to underestimate the number of ships that meet their end in combat in lowsec on a daily basis.

The main thing that held back HAC fleets was the AoE DD. Now that it's gone you can expect to see more of them
All sounds pretty damn good for Technetium

now we just need "hulkageddon" to be a huge success and we'll be back over 40K
Looks like it's going back there in a few days even without Hulkageddon
it's only 500 tech per hulk, so unless my evil little event miraculously kills every hulk in eve, i doubt it will be noticable.

it was me saying hulkageddon won't even register. and I run the damned event :P
at 500 tech a pop we would need to kill truly massive amounts of hulks (yes, more massive than the 200+ a day we have gotten in the first few days).
That said, I've done my part and removed 321500 units of tech from the galaxy so far :P
