its nice to get povs from actual collectors, instead of the usual crypto natives that sell you valuation dreams

but anyw this cycle its just the 21 of us in the same boxing ring as always

DON’T FEAR SEPTEMBER OR RECORD HIGHS: UBS

The S&P 500 dipped 0.7% to start September, historically the weakest month for stocks. UBS noted the index has fallen in six of the past 10 Septembers, averaging a 2% decline. Still, the bank advises investors not to fear seasonal weakness or record highs.

UBS expects the S&P 500 to reach 6,800 by mid-2026, supported by:

1. Strong earnings momentum (81% beat Q2 estimates).

2. Anticipated Fed rate cuts of 100 bps over the next four meetings.

3. Long-term AI-driven growth, with global AI capex projected at $500B by 2026.

Since 1960, the S&P has delivered 12% returns on average in the year after an all-time high, and 38% over three years.

its quite interesting to see how actual card collectors are rushing to dump and/or are not as excited about the whole tcg rwa onchain meta

vs

crypto natives that are incredibly bullish on tcg rwa

unique case of disparity between the supposed end user and token buyer

i think ultimately its who your target audience is

in this case, the current tcg wave feels more targeted toward crypto natives that want exposure or just a meta to bid, instead of actual card collectors

what this means is that tcg rwa can still go up from ct bidding, but will likely not have much real users

its the short term speculation that we're playing here and we will end up slapping on huge premiums because its onchain as with NFTs

gachafication is a good touch, but it feels like retail prefer to gacha on tiktok live streams instead (?)

streamers are making good money opening packs for others on live streams (why this is addictive idk)

i have absolutely no clue about tcg markets so im just mumbling observations with no actual skin in the game
