The Pokémon card market has indeed witnessed explosive growth, transforming into a significant investment opportunity. Peter Levin, an investor and founder of Griffin Gaming Partners, argues that in a hypothetical apocalypse, Pokémon cards could become a form of currency due to their immense value and popularity. In his interview with the Hollywood Reporter, he highlights their remarkable appreciation, outperforming the S&P 500 by 3,000%.
Levin attributes this growth to the cards’ global appeal since their emergence in the late ’90s, noting a cycle of highs and lows, but ultimately a trajectory of substantial growth. As such, he suggests that now might be a strategic time to consider stockpiling these cards as they continue to redefine their worth in both hobbyist and investment circles.
