The authorities are reporting that they have managed to contain the dramatic increase in black-market trading in the past week with numbers of illegally traded items considerable down on last week. | |||
As a result the markets show a healthy rise this week after last week’s slump with trading profits up by almost 50%. | |||
The recent reduction in commodity supply rates have driven traders farther afield in search of profitable trade routes, but it would seem that only 2% of Commanders can really call themselves adventurers visiting more than 20 different markets when exploring for opportunities and no single Commander has yet to trade commodities in every single market currently available. There are big profits to be made out there and new markets to trade in for Commanders who dare to travel! | |||
Puzzled mechanics working in shipyards across the sector have noticed that some Frameshift drive cores have needed replacing much earlier than expected. One was overheard talking in a bar on Smithy's Claim: "These cores are normally good for 1000 light years, and yet nearly 1 in 20 of my customers has needed a complete drive overhaul, where have these Commanders been flying?" | |||

Module popularity has settled down, with Commanders strongly favouring Gimballed Multicannon and Fixed Cannon, Pulse Lasers and Burst Lasers. | |||
Faulcon deLacy have been beating their chests this week, not only have they see a big rise in sales of all three of their ships which, now combined account for 40% of the market, we have also seen the introduction of their new retro flag range from ancient Earth, as custom Viper paint jobs. Clearly talks of an expanded product range were not just rumour! | |||
All the other shipyards appear to have kept their market positions. Zorgon Peterson’s stalwart Hauler maintained its consistency with 27% market share and Lakon saw a slight drop of less than 1% in both their Type 6 and Type 9 ships which doesn’t seem to concern them too much. | |||
Core Dynamics remain please with the slow but steady growth of Eagle sales this week reaching 14% of the overall market. | |||

; Elite Pilots Federation Alert | |||
The ongoing uneasy standoff between Eranin and the Federation looks like it is starting to deteriorate ahead of the 30th anniversary of Eranin's independence. Long range scans and covert agents report a significant mobilisation of Federation forces, indicating that the Federation may be looking to spoil Eranin's party. | |||
Black market sales of battle weapons rose markedly this week. | |||
Both pieces of news are perhaps not unrelated, and bode well for members who are partial to a bit of action... | |||

Core Dynamics made what independent observers are calling a stunning coup this week with their announcement that all long serving Pilots Federation commanders will have the use of an Eagle for no cost beyond their Pilots Federation dues. The deal provides a rare glimpse of the huge influence and power wielded by the Pilots Federation, and characteristically few details of the financing of the deal have emerged. Needless to say, Core Dynamics are at the top of the pile this week with 100% market penetration! | |||
Faulcon deLacy continue to dominate sales with a 40% share of the weekly market. Although the news from Core Dynamics no doubt rocked them back on their heels, we've heard rumours of the bigwigs at FdL puffing cigars in celebration of a secretive mega-deal of their own that they seem to have done - we're pushing for more info, but it seems clear they have a something big of their own waiting to be announced... | |||
Zorgon Peterson's early wobbles are now well behind them - the Hauler is turning out to be a model of consistency, with 26% share this week. | |||
After last weeks dip Lakon sales firmed up again to 16% share for the Type 6 and 5% for the Type 9. | |||

; And Finally | |||
Last week's information that no Commanders have traded in every available market stimulated at least one of our number. We received this transmission: | |||
I, Commander Erik Marcaigh, claim to have now traded, both buying and selling goods, at every Commodity Market visible and reachable by my scanners. I made sure to make a profit at each market as well, no matter how small it may have been.<br> | |||
I have also visited every single solar system my ship currently has capability to reach. Some systems were a brief visit, while others held me over as I explored a bit.<br> | |||
That's 55 solar systems reached and 41 Commodity Markets, using my trusty Lakon Type 6 "Karma" over the course of 8+ hours of flying and trading. | |||
Of course we will need to wait for our full GalNet system exploring / scanning tech upgrade to verify such claims officially. | |||
