that is because big increases makes a good opportunity to make a quick earn
however that what people who looks for it in google(that is people who doesn't bitcoin)
it is also related to the news of big increases in newspapers and tv news

it's interesting how people seem to know something is going on before the news. The price starts to drop and goes volatile early December, then the news came out on the 18th of December: "BTC china banned deposits in yuan following new restriction imposed by the central bank" (the news event at the peak of google trend)

Price helps bring in new... everything also though, we do need interest beyond price but its all very important variable maybe 2nd only to the original design of bitcoin itself.

Moon launch = media speaking about Bitcoin = people searching for it. Also the herd people that enter the market at the top to lose money after the correction.

Of course use the search trend to predict rises won't work.
