Lets face it, the moment clueless professor announced plans for regulating PLEX prices CCP screwed the market. There is no way for PLEX to go down in price. CCP has ZERO market tools at its disposal for making the price smaller without taking direct real money hit. They cant spawn PLEX out of thin air, they cant make GTCs cheaper, they cant reduce PLEX functionality, all of those would cut into their profit. All they can do is buy plex off the market making it more expensive or maybe try stupid fud banners on logon screen.

1) CCP Creates random account
2) CCP gives said account Unlimited funds/Plex cards either is fine.
3) Said account places 20-30 unit buy orders to hoard plex but remain inconspicuous
4) Said account, Dumps back on buy orders (CLEARING/removing them)
5) Rinse & repeat Step 3 to 4 until buy orders are at desired level
6) Said account Systematically places 20-30 units of plex in "blocking order formation" forcing lemmings to under cut, lowering price.
there is more than one way to do it. they can also just dump a 100-200 unit order 0.1 isk above the highest buy order, but thats 'too obvious' and a tycoon my buy them out.
Zero market tools you say? Are you that Naive 
marketing tool = a character.
So, in your world buying something out and making it scarce will lower the price?

Nope, just answered your stupidity with facts. (CCP can lower plex price directly)
