You're Looking at the Wrong Tier of Cards Right Now

You're looking at the wrong tier of cards right now. All 16 sets with singles cards in this era are down month over month at the moment - and we've never once seen a group go from all 16 negative to all positive in one move, so I expect another month of softness before things really turn. But the real story in this video isn't the short-term dip. It's where the value has actually gone. At this same point in the Sword & Shield lifecycle, the best opportunities were sitting in three, four, and five dollar cards - big names, big sets, great artwork, completely overlooked because everyone was chasing the expensive stuff. That's not the case anymore. This time, those mid-tier cards are already priced appropriately. The future growth is already baked in. That's a big part of why the total value of this era's singles is so much higher than Sword & Shield's was at this same stage - collectors aren't sleeping on the cheap stuff the way they used to. In this breakdown, I'm revealing: ✅ Why all 16 tracked sets are negative right now, and why that's never flipped straight to positive before ✅ Why the mid-tier "sleeper" cards that worked so well in the Sword & Shield era don't exist the same way here ✅ Why that's exactly why you need to be looking at a completely different tier of cards right now ✅ The chase cards I'm doubling down on instead - cards sitting below two separate all-time highs ✅ The biggest chase card from Destined Rivals and the biggest chase card from 151 ✅ A standout pick from Paldea Evolved, the Charizard from Obsidian Flames, and the Pikachu from Surging Sparks ✅ Why chase cards are usually the first to drop AND the first to move once the market turns - and why I act on them quickly The middle of this market already caught up in price. The chase cards haven't. That's the tier worth your attention right now. 💬 Which of these chase cards are you watching?
