Market outlook

Stable Outlook 4/10

Steady low demand for common vintage basketball cards; Bird's popularity sustains minor interest but oversupply caps growth.

Next months. Stable low prices, minor fluctuations from grading submissions

Long term. Stable with slight upside from Bird retrospectives, unlikely major gains
