Because journalist now are riding bitcoin's popularity. They completely write garbage news to attract clicks to their website. And you will also noticed that there are a lot of so called experts now. Looks like everyone has a Masters or PhD in bitcoin economics. They can see and predict that price movement.

They may be group of people and now a single individual. We will not identify them because that's one huge amount to pour in the market. They will only surface if someone will go forward that they are the mysterious buyers, but I doubt it. Bitcoin address has no name attached to it.

If they go nuts about this already, how would they respond to an exchange moving 300,000 BTC, like what happened years ago.

Title would be like -- Mysterious Bitcoin trader moves $3 billion worth of funds to exchange, potential collapse of market ahead!  

I can somewhat understand that news sites are spreading this nonsense, because at the end of the day, it's hyped and attracts clicks (i.e. ad revenue). The thing I find to be embarrassing, is the fact that people keep replying to threads with posts like, good news, Bitcoin is getting more popular now, this gives the market confidence, etc. It's yet again a sign of how dumb the majority of the people here are. No wonder that people take fud articles for granted so easily, it's their lacking understanding of this market and Bitcoin itself that makes them ignorant in each and every aspect of this industry....

What kind of authenticity does a normal article gives to such happening ?
There would have been a massive impact of it if that really happened and the forum would've been flourished with the talks of it .
Moreover no transaction hash or some other real proof is provided above to proof its occurrence in the real world.
