I bet the sun will go down this evening, and it will go down hard with a red glow.
I make no bets about it coming up again tomorrow. --

...and everything is propped up by mainly just Mexallon, while the market is still highly unstable. Oh, well, one can't always be completely right.

When Chribba says, "Veldspar is Veldspar" does one believe him, because it is a simple truth to believe. The man then knows his rocks.
You make stupid predictions, pulled out of thin air and based on a lucky hunch, ready to put it down with an even stupider comment should it be wrong. Only God knows what you know. --

Technically is betting the same as trolling.

There is one difference. When betting you have the possibility of winning, when trolling you always lose.

What are you even talking about Whitehound? Trolling is not the same as betting. Walk into a betting shop and ask to place a troll on a horse running in the 3.15 at Haymarket and they won't know what you're talking about.
This thread has been an interesting look at the way the market develops in Eve. It has been educational. It seems to imply that the market lands softer than people generally expect, implying in turn that stockpiles are larger than people figure. Of course other factors played a part too.
This was not a troll thread because for those of us who followed it there was interesting information about Eve market economics.

Someone is lacking humour, and deleted my bet about the sun going down hard and with a red glow. That is too bad.
So now I bet ... the same or another, possibly humourless person will disregard my latest comment as a discussion of moderation. --

Well, he feels hurt by the thought people are making bets against possible outcomes of a very complex system, and also about the existence of T2 BPOs. He's sensitive like that. We better not upset him and let him finish his warm milk, then go to bed clutching his safety blanket.

No, I do not feel hurt. For one am I disgusted by the length of this thread over a pointless bet, and secondly is it stupid to argue in all seriousness about it.

Not too disgusted to do more than anyone else to keep it alive and growing though...

At this point I'd like to bet 1B isk that Whitehound likes to hear himself talk just a little bit too much. Any takers?

Anyone interested in where the basket price is now? Would you have won that bet in the long term Akita?

I happen to be interested in the end of stable insurance and thought it might be worth resurrecting this thread. Using average prices for the Forge region, I get 67 mil for the raven basket. Looks like the decline in the low ends (mex on down) was countered by high ends, particularly nocxium, zydrine, and mega.
The related rokh market is extraordinarily stable. There's almost no variation in trade price (in the Forge) over the past year.

22.07.2010 : 67,416,291 ISK (2.49/4.67/33.63/58.78/137.16/1,041.82/2,375.73) - Thu - JD4 - BET LOST
I find it interesting to note that in this thread the mineral basket price is 69,674,746.85, when this bet was lost with Akita T it was the above mentioned 67,416,291 - but if you take into account the massive spike of Nocxium (Does anyone know why this mineral spiked? I will look into it shortly but would be nice to see other people's opinions) that pretty much doubled the cost of the Nocxium used in the build the Raven mineral basket price is actually 64,758,573.43. As some minerals drop, some others rise, perhaps insurance had less of an effect on the 'basket' than people thought?
Looks like Akita T's reasoning for suspecting a decline was pretty good to me, but a) didn't take enough other factors into account and b) the Mex rise was unexpected/manipulated at the time of the actual bet .. oops.
