Overview

The Japanese Pokémon index is up 39.93% over this period, -5.78% in the last 7 days against -18.00% over 30. It sits 20.43% below the period high (102 on Sep 13) and 57.75% above the period low (Oct 24).

Key insights
  1. 1Both the 7-day (-5.78%) and 30-day (-18.00%) moves are negative — sellers have had the upper hand.
  2. 2Day-to-day volatility is moderate at 1.00% a day, though the deepest pullback in the window was -20.4%.
  3. 315 consecutive down days — the longest run in view; the sharpest day was -9.38% on Oct 14.
Outlook

Gains for the period are intact but the latest week is soft — a pause rather than a reversal unless the low gives way.

Arithmetic over the index level series (7/30-day change, daily volatility, drawdown, distance from the period high and low). Not investment advice.

Value-weighted index, base 100 at the window start: the sum of the basket's observed values against the prior day's, chained daily, each card's move capped so one outlier can't dominate. Values come from real comparable sales resolved on Slabline card pages. The window deepens automatically as history accumulates. Long-run history reflects the 6,492 most-traded cards in this basket; the recent window covers all 27,676 tracked cards. Not investment advice.
