Does The Stock Market Influence Your Vintage Purchases?
The title says it all. For me, I look at the stock market and might not spend quite as much if it is tanking. And I only have a very small fraction of money in it.
And a newer pick up..

As money gets tighter, I hesitate to buy bigger cards.

My finances are more or less fixed, even though I still work. Nothing is tied to the stock market. My being able to find disposable money to purchase vintage cards is 100% affected by how high card prices (continue to) go. Thankfully, I have Ruth, Cobb, Mantle, etc., from earlier days when I could afford them. I am not able or even willing to pay thousands of dollars for baseball cards.

Over the years I have found that during economic downturns, not saying we are in a recession, don't think that will happen until 2023, these come down the least in comparison to other names, these also seem to go up the most when times are good.
Ruth Cobb Jackie Willie and Mantle In recessions people will not pay up for low grade non graded cards, they're coming down considerably. Last edited by Johnny630; 05-09-2022 at 08:47 AM.

Yes, I buy more when prices are down, I sell when prices are up

Stock market, no. Economy and inflation, yes.
This year, I have seen more "buyers" become "sellers" than ever before.
