I don't think the protocol broadcasts remaining balance as a transaction, but I might be wrong.
Yeah, it does. Due to the way the technology works, you have to spend all of the money you got from a previous transaction. So if you ever got 500k in one transaction, you have to take all that, send 1BTC to someone, and send the 499 999 BTC to a new wallet address. Or if you use a custom client: to the same address again.

Hash rate does NOT indicated a 51
Since when is the hash rate a reliable indicator of a 51% attack in progress? Sure I mean a large drop in hash rate could mean a pool operator gone rogue, but other than that, what?
The transactions started at the same time as mtgox manipulation.
Coincidence?

This doesn't look like 15 big transactions to me.
I'm assuming it's 15 small spends from a wallet with a large balance
Not so exciting.

I'm assuming it's 15 small spends from a wallet with a large balance. (So the larger amount is returned to the wallet as change)

People moving coins into the exchanges to cash out maybe?
That would cause a MASSIVE drop.

Works for me. Excellent opportunity to 'spread' the wealth as people buy it up cheap.

You would think that if you had that many bitcoins you could throw the miners a small bone. But no. 0 fees on all of them.
