What stands out
- The 5 largest gains added $1,981.26 combined, against $1,400.92 shed by the 5 largest falls — the big money leaned toward the gainers.
- Plasma Storm appears 2 times among the movers — worth watching as a set, not just a single.
- 4 of the moves happened in played grades. Grades move independently (measured correlation ~0), so these say nothing about Near Mint copies of the same singles.
- 5 singles rose without one down day this week — see Heating up below.
- Snorlax - 33/95 (Prerelease) [Staff], Lugia EX (Team Plasma) (134 Full Art), Lugia, Mew Star (Delta Species) - 2008 (Dylan Lefavour), Lugia, Dragonite (9), Dark Dragonair are repeat appearances from the previous edition — sustained movement is a stronger signal than a one-day spike.
