The basic conceptual misalignment we have here is that cards are not a single asset class and card investors are not a single group. It is an oversimplification to treat any specific aspect of the hobby as a bellwether for the entire hobby. it is simply too diverse. A very interesting piece ran on Sports Collectors Daily recently with Chris McGill, the Co-Founder of Card Ladder, who provided some statistics on different segments of the hobby over the last 5 years:
Ultra-Modern: +639% Modern: +744% Vintage: +270% Pre-War Vintage: 340% Yet over 2022, modern was down 30% and prewar vintage was up 29%. it isn't monolithic. The 1986 Jordan RC losing 60% of its value from the market top didn't affect the market for T206 Cobbs or 1933 Goudey Ruths. Similarly, what happens with the 1955 Koufax will pass right by the guys looking for a Jim Brown rookie card.
