As much as I would like to believe this, more people (based solely on the map) seem to be in coal producing regions of the world, meaning they most likely would not change their power plants. I think the supply for oil is just way down if anything. 

 

On another note, I believe that food will continue its rise because of the fact that more people will begin putting money in commerce and manufacturing so I would suggest that a couple nations per alliance begin considering stockpiling up.

I'll always produce food, it's nice to be self sufficient.

You're no longer protecting the II? We have still teamed with II and TAC (and others) to rival The Covenants. This is getting complex.

Big problems for TSG. Really, not kidding.

If Casey and Cyradis are King and Queen does that mean they're married?

Now steel, gasoline, aluminium and munitions are selling real fast in the market thanks to some rumour mongers, I am sure those resources producers are laughing all the way to the bank now. Soon we will see an entire new set of top ten nations thanks those these unfounded rumours about impending war.

Most likely, it's a little bit of both. Just like the stock market, when people get antsy things change quickly. Either way, it is stimulating the in-game economy and a lot of that money that is given out freely for the forum bonuses will trickle down into the smaller nations, causing everyone to grow.

 

EDIT: I mean, just look at that jump.

One thing you missed, Athanasios, that Quelye was doing was listing the resources in order according to price (highest to lowest). So for your last post, gas should have been listed first, then steel, aluminum, munitions, and so on. It is interesting to see not only the amount of increase or decrease, but also which resource seems to be most in demand.

You are correct, I was tracking them in order of price. I've been too busy unfortunately though to keep up, so thanks for stepping in and posting an update Athanasios! Keep doing the updates if you'd like :)

Oh okay, I didn't even realize that. Thanks for the observations, and Quelye, I will be happy to take it over from now on!

 

EDIT: I fixed the order for 10.25.14 so now they are properly ranked, and they will be done properly in the future. Thanks for pointing that out!

Market Trends 10/26/14


 


Market Index: $13,421 (+$1,025)


1) Gasoline: $3,013 (+$132)


2) Steel: $2,089 (-$50)


3) Aluminum: $1,886 (+$35)


4) Munitions: $1,237 (+$110)


5) Coal: $1,086 (+$340)


6)  Bauxite: $1004 (+$129)


7) Uranium: $809 (-$45)


8) Lead: $805 (+$430)


9) Iron: $631 (-$31)


10)Oil: $617 (+$23)


11) Food: $244 (-$61)


 


Notes


  • Overall Market Index continues to escalate.
  • Lead and Bauxite prices are rising quickly as their manufactured counterparts are in high demand.
  • Coal jumps two places up the list, from #7 to #5
  • With UPN and VoC officially declaring war on TAC, I'd predict that the market won't be slowing down any time soon.
  • A large disparity exists between oil and gasoline cost. Oil remains relatively cheap, while gasoline has a firm grip on the #1 position. Those who are importing oil, refining it, and selling it as gasoline must be making huge profits.
