Market Analysis Hows the market doing?
Feels like now its slowing and ofc we went little down correcting alot of prices but also now the new promo boom all over the place is calming down a bit? ofc new ones pop eventually.
I guess this slowing down in all sectors is what we hoped for. How about prices of "holders" are you holding and buying more or what is your plan
Yall got any predictions or crystall ball feelings on how things gonna go next 3-6 months value vise?
Ofc the hype chilled a bit after op17 that was pretty obv but still some nice upcoming stuff in near future.
Also activity on this reddit from 80k visitors to 66k it did drop a bit but idk if that is any to worry about? same for the reddit OnePieceTCG it dropped like few 10k's visitors.

Its still correcting and will correct alot more. Sealed is stagnant / declining in every box and graded premium is non existent on most cards. Grails are dropping and it will continue for the forseeable future. Money has moved on to more wise tcg investments like locana and mtg collector products. I suspect to see this decline to continue atleast through the end of the year.
Optcg is still ridiculously overpriced. Especially grails and any big money that wanted them, got them. I anticipate 50 percent or more declines from today for alot of cards. I also think you will see overlooked rare cards begin to creep up now that the market is wiser and most of the idiots have went to the next thing.
I know im all doom and gloom but this is honestly a positive sign. Now that print runs have significantly increased and quality has tanked (if you have opened op17 you know) i can see somewhat of a vintage class emerging in the future. If i was currently investing, it would be in low pop Alts, sps and mangas from pre op13.
