Why would CCP have to do anything about this?
Because they did several things about Dyspro. However, if historical action is evidence of current intent, they should start to consider action when we are above 150k.

I would hardly say tech is stagnating  . Seems pretty steady at 75 now and if Akita would just move his 500k order up a bit ...
Fair enough. It's open to interpretation, but my language was definitely unjustifiably strong.
To clarify, I personally think it will be sitting between 65k-75k pu for a long time. My guess is that every time it noses up to 75k, another few stockpiles will get cashed in, then we see the dip to the sixties and settling in low 70s again for another couple weeks or so, repeat ad nauseam.
^
Also note that whenever tech takes a quick rise up a few K like it did last weekend traders who are ill suited for long term investing buy in thinking it will break out and they will see a good return. Then stocks get released and we have weeks of little traders slowly quitting their investment and taking a loss.
Tech will drop again, we'll probably see mid 60s again before we break 75k on an upswing.

You were saying? 
It did. I re-bought at 66-67k two days before it broke 75k.

Just my 2 cents but those who are lucky enough to cap a tech should make it their duty not to let these prices get out of hand.... e.g. to keep it at 75k reason being if its stable below the prices of Dyps before the patch, something to fight over - if prices get stupid then we may just be back to square 1, a complete overhaul of moon goo. Currently atm - yes the biggest NAP train holds them so grow some and come get em.
There are natural barriers to tech rising too fast in the psychology of stockpile holders. Tech will bounce off of the prices they decide to sell at. These prices are generally easy to predict.
CCP will fix moon goo again regardless of what we do. This is good, as another major dynamic change will create another bottleneck for us to get rich on. Changes benefit the traders, while a stable system only benefits the largest alliances.

Technetium price is at the moment purely driven by speculators and not by demand.
Why?
Because the products like platinum technite and to a much lesser degree fluxed condensates are a lot cheaper than their components. If there would be a high demand from manufacturers then especially the PT would be bought off already a good while ago.
This is true but not in the way you think. Speculators like AkitaT are responsible for holding the price down.
Speculators were largely driven from Technetium for a while by the bot attempt to crash the market. When Tech shot back up to 75k there was very little activity from speculators buying in. We watched all stockpiles released at 75k slowly chip away due to normal demand with a minimum influx of new Tech. Now the stockpiles at 85k will slowly chip away so that in another month or two Tech will be bottom heavy again and ready to spike. This is the new cycle until either stocks run out and Tech shoots to the moon or 0.0 becomes peaceful care-bear land again and supply increases.
