IMHO, this reflects the unhealthy state of the in game market. WH stuff had been the high end PVE farming space, and T3s were bling pvp ships. Blue loot nerf is another story, but the flagship sleeper salvage (nanoribbons) tanking so low for so long and T3 ships and subs have been so cheap for so long now. But when you look at the trade volumes it's not like they became really affordable and people fly them a lot. My personal reading of the situation is that there is literally less demand for T3 now and also large stock pile of WH resources and T3 products. Alpha toons are not going to effect T3 market directly as they cannot use them, although there may be indirect increase in demand if the game itself gets more populated and there are more actions in space.
This is the lowest and the longest depression of T3 mats and products I have seen since WH came out. To me that doesn't sound good where supposedy 'high end' content and products are tanking so bad for so long. Everything's so cheap now from old school deadspace gears to T3, pirate ships to capitals. It's good time to buy them and fly them for lulz but when losses don't hurt the wallet as much as they used to that takes something away from the experience. Sure you can buy and hold now, they probably won't crash much more, but I wouldn't bet on them to bounce back strong any time soon. If you have enough ISK reserve and already have pthet investment, then yes I could recommend. But i wouldn't rate them as primary investment option at this stage.
If you've followed th market or read through the forum here, you will find that there had been sustained heavy dumping of T3 since the first quarter of this year. There had been some attempted manipulations and very short term spikes but none of them lasted long enough for people to get rid of the stock at good price and cash out. I would imagine lots of people are sitting on big stockpile even until now.
