Diversification and Sector Rotation between TCGs and exchange related strategies
Longtime Magic collector and investor and hyper Modern one piece and Pokemon investor as well (although that's almost everyone in those two TCG).
Have noticed that like traditional equity markets, there's very predictable sector rotation trends of money rotating in and out of the TCGs and between TCGs and that this can be exploited for Alpha.
Biggest example right now is Pokemon sealed product has been largely stagnant for half a year or more while money has been flooding into secondary collector markets such as MTG sealed products (ex: Final Fantasy) and certain one piece sets (ex: PRB01) and even Lorcana has been rocketing the past few weeks.
My plan because of this is to be more dynamic with shifting product around and trading in and out of certain games. MTG has been a huge laggard for years but the broader market is finally starting to bid into MTG as more single prices increase and the sealed products containing them start raising to match the EV multiple that other games place on sealed.
The other consideration is everything held in TCGs also competes with the actual equity markets and so I've been shifting in and out of Semiconductors and high bandwidth memory (which I'm the most bullish on) in and out of TCGs to increase or decrease personal exposure.
I'm looking at both the OP anniversary sets in the fall, MTG announcements of next years UB collaborations, and Sandisk earnings coming up as decision points to make larger moves in.
