TWIRP Minigame Indexes Report and Analysis (2008/01/28) TWIRP Report and Economic Analysis - Week of January 21, 2008

This final part of the TWIRP weekly report covers special indexes that are unique or otherwise don’t fit into other groups. For more details on them, please refer to TWIRP Special (Extra) Indexes; if you are new to TWIRP, please refer to the TWIRP Quick Guide before proceeding.

Discontinued Items Affordability (TWIRP-X-DISCa): 107.5 +2.7% p
Luxury Items Affordability (TWIRP-X-LUXa): 105.8 +0.5% p
Powerleveling Affordability (TWIRP-X-POWa): 105.9 +1.2% p

Key Items Affordability (TWIRP-X-KEY): 103.5 -3.6% q

High Alchemy Affordability (TWIRP-X-ALCHa): 210.6 +24.3% ppp

High alchemy continues to respond well to Jagex removing the utterly pointless floors on bows, which had previously made alchemy nearly entirely unaffordable; I think this will be the last week it goes up so much, though. The other indexes saw much less dramatic moves; discontinued items continue to bounce around with little rhyme or reason, most likely being moved by price manipulators and people responding to earlier price moves.

Crude Volatility Index (TWIRP-X-VOL): 861.2

Volatility was still high based on pre-Summoning numbers, though decreased from the previous week.
