Another difference: unless you're Warren Buffet, people buying publicly traded stocks face a concrete market price. Even in the same grade, though, a given vintage card at a given time is going to sell within a fairly wide range depending on who the seller is, how price sensitive the buyer is, centering and other characteristics of the card, negotiating skill in a private sale context, etc. Maybe 2017 PSA 10 Aaron Judge Topps cards are pretty much commoditized, but earlier stuff isn't and I don't think ever will be.
