Longer term price will go higher. Just right now IMHO with all the bullshit going on with major btc services and vendors (also recent fails with BTCST and GLBSE)....and the late availability of the newly anticipated ASIC hardware (BFL fail). I can see many getting tired of the tons of bullshit surrounding the bitcoin economy right now. People have bills to pay and costs to recoup on hardware expenses etc.
that was the last few months after the 15.50 dump. Post wordpress (to some degree block halving) is def the largest factor in the market right now
