Off the top of my head:
1)A good 30-40% of 0.0 territory has either switched hands recently, or sees intense warfare. This is not good for mining, and could push high-end prices up.
2)Capital ships came out of the closet after a long time, for many alliances. Many players that had sold theirs due to lack of use, are buying them again, alliances are putting more in the ovens.
3)Titan bpc's have entered the market in a seemingly steady supply. A few of theese alone could boost mineral prices. Also, motherships have become more affordable - and the "nerf ms" dev blog effect is dying down.

Very interesting. Looking at my index from a year ago, I see a short-term 6% price spike across the board, which led to a rather modest bump in the running average. This bump was during an otherwise uninterrupted price slide of 18% that lasted 5 months before bottoming out. So I wonder if Chinese New Year truly is related. If the same dynamics are in play it'll take about a month for prices to return, 2 weeks on upswing and 2 weeks back down.

Who gave these Chinese a few days off all 1,6 billion at the same time? Should be forbidden. Hope they have no more holidays this year?

12 days after my previous post, the mineral index appears to have just topped out. Upward pressure on trit and pyer appears to have slacked, with only zyd really still having upward push. On my alak toon I'd predicted trit would bottom out at about 2.50 and then push back up to 2.90. I still think trit's going to settle down to about the 2.80/2.90 range within the next couple weeks, and overall mineral prices should soften by about 5-7% from current levels in that time frame.

It looks like a bunch of the new low sec macros (that I mentioned last time) got zapped. I see current trit prices about 20% above the lowest levels in early January. There's still some haulers with a suspiciously uniform fit running around, but at least in my area, it seems a bit lower than in the past. Can some of the people higher on the food chain (eg, Ingunn pirates) verify this?
Alternately, the people who haul minerals from low sec to high sec might be getting a lot better at their job. I haven't been keeping track of trade volumes. Might check on that next time I get Eve open. That would indicate some pressure pushing trit down if it were correct.

Since the trinity has been launched, the market of eve acts weirdly
Probably some people have gathered enough resources to manipulate it a bit or ccp is interfering, which is worse.
But something artificial is going on

There is more going on in the market right now than people seem to be mentioning here. But if you think it is limited to minerals you're mistaken. I'd expect mineral prices to continue an upward trend though, at least several of them, they just hit a point of resistance where speculators sold out. Once that supply vanishes you'll see a further increase in price I believe.

Contrary to popular beleif, all the hauler macros aren't actually hauling minerals around or anything. The only way they can affect mineral prices are by the cost of replacing them as we blow up hundreds in a night, though thats prob dwarfed by the cost of replacing all the battleships going pop in delve.
hauler macros just do courier missions over and over and over again, and when you break them open all that falls out is construction blocks, sealed containers, and homeless people.

So how many haulers have you popped on the way to the station? It appears to me that whoever was selling trit last month, didn't move it from station to station nor jump. They just dropped the trit into a nearby local station.
