Those who hesitate are lost.
Of course, those late to the table may get burned when prices nose-dive as CCP announces a long delay in implementation of POCOs. |

20% sounds about right long-term, but I foresee at least a few months of 40-60% higher prices.
Lots of other games coming out this winter that may draw off those who earn their ISK from PI harvesting (i.e. the younger players, where 800k per planet per day in hi-sec from harvesting is still good income for the effort). So between that and the fluctuations caused by people holding monopolies over low-sec / null-sec PI planets it could get ugly as supply constricts.
(Just because people take time out to play other games doesn't always mean that their POS towers suddenly stop needing fuel.) |

All of the "old" P4 products from NPC sales were turned into "broken XYZ" last fall, so there aren't huge stashes of P4. There are some huge stashes of P1/P2/P3 products (Guidance Systems being a common example), but those stashes won't be bottomless and will eventually dry up (see "Water" price history).
But yes, it's a pretty good bet that at least 5000-10000 POCOs (maybe 20,000) will need to be constructed within a very short time, which is going to have interesting impact on the price of P4. Someone said that the total value of P4 being traded daily currently is 20-30B/day. At 100B/POCO that's only enough to build about 250-400 per day.
Plus the impact that is happening because everyone expects a constriction of supply as low-sec planet supply dries up. POS owners are already bidding up the price of all POS fuel components in order to secure fuel for the next few months, just in case of supply disruption. |

Which I'm not sure whether that's good or bad.
Good, because folks can still get their stuff during RF mode.
Probably bad, because they'll have no incentive to come back and help defend it when the RF timer wears off. |
