This exploit was merely a ploy by CCP to create a 'financial crisis' in EVE, to mirror the real world... This is going to make some really nice headline. ^_^

the closest thing to a reasonable estimation of the timeframe was made by that guy who compared market history and thougt it had gone on for a few weeks.
Weeks? We have pretty solid indications that it's been going on at least for a year.
First off, look at the price and volume of ferrogel in Jita. Tell me, how can a limited resource increase in volume and decrease in price, even as demand for T2 stuff keeps increasing?
Also, there was a thread in december last year complaining about how ferrogel was being sold for under manufacturing costs...

All I can say is... Poor economics professor... Has to do all his calculations afresh.

In the absolute WORST case scenario, T2 ships will go up in price by ~35% (modules less). Note that this scenario involves ALL ferrogel to come from Alchemy, with NONE still being produced from moons. A much more likely scenario is a ~10-15% increase in prices when they stabilise.
I haven't looked that closely at alchemy, and it will obviously limit the price increase of the rarer reactions. However, you calculations doesn't seem to factor in a potential rise in price for the alchemy ingredients, nor the time required to perform alchemy.

According to the latest information from CCP, there is a good chance this bug has existed for years, and was bug reported. However CCP took no action regarding the bug report(s) and the "exploit" was allowed to continue.
Are you talking about the same bug report posted earlier, where it was sent using German, closed (rather than confirmed as not an exploit) and told to refile.
If ever I find an exploit, I'll report it using Japanese, just to ensure I'll be able to exploit it without fear of the banstick?
