Constituents
Loading…Establishing the new standard
Designed by the industry's leading data infrastructure provider, delivering a transparent and reliable benchmark index for the high-end Pokémon card market.
Robust Methodology
Liquidity-screened and weighted by rolling market activity, with interquartile-mean pricing applied to minimize the distortion caused by outliers.
Broad Market Coverage
Spanning multiple eras, sets, and language editions (EN & JP), diversifying concentration risk across individual cards.
Settled Data Only
Powered entirely by API-verified, settled transaction data from major platforms, eliminating the influence of dealer manipulation and subjective valuation.
Methodology
Each day the index equals the sum of (constituent weight × rolling 30-day interquartile mean PSA 10 price in USD) divided by the rebalance divisor, scaled so the base date equals 100. The divisor is adjusted at each quarterly rebalance to keep the level continuous when constituents rotate.
Constituents are ranked by trailing 90-day pooled sales volume (Alt.xyz + SNKRDUNK), with a minimum of five qualifying sales. Weights are proportional to that volume (no single-name cap). The basket is rebalanced quarterly; new-release cards must be seasoned at least 90 days before inclusion.
The universe is restricted to copies graded PSA 10 GEM MINT across English and Japanese releases. Raw and lower-grade copies are excluded because they follow different pricing dynamics and add noise.
