So I've been watching MtGox over the past two weeks, and it's been somewhat steady, but within a 5 day time period we went from a volume of 250k BTC to now 53k, with the lowest being 27k~ over the weekend.

Do you guys think it's speculative investors, or possibly some other bigger forces (Central Banks etc) trying to manipulate the market?

I wouldn't read too much into it.  Weekends can be pretty slow in general.

27k isn't really low volume. I think you haven't been around for very long.

For example may 2012 had 9 days with less volume:

I haven't, but I've been observing and reading before I really fully invest myself into bitcoin(monetarily and mentally)
