I'm sure guys selling real estate in [fill in the blank] can provide their own market analysis showing you'd be nuts not to buy a time share in [fill in the blank].

Hell, I've seen Glengarry Glenn Ross many too many times to mention.
This is exactly right. Also, this index is hardly a representation of “card” values. It is basically a measure of Ruth and 1950s baseball card values. There are sectors of the card market, such as 19th century cards, that did poorly over this period.

What's the saying, there are lies, damn lies, and statistics. As I mentioned, you start those charts in 2009 not 2008 and you get dramatically worse results even for the "elite" cards.

Does PWCC have stock? It's not clear what he's trying to show with that graph. Unless you have a card, what good is it?

He needs to add a line to the graph reflecting PWCC net worth.
