TickerMint Daily: New Highs, Old Rookies Cool Off

New All-Time Highs

Eight products printed fresh ATHs as of 2026-08-14. 151 Elite Trainer Box Case hit $5868.62. Journey Together Booster Box Case hit $1808.85. Destined Rivals Sleeved Booster Case hit $1624.82. Vintage still shows up too: Charizard (Base Set Holofoil) at $845.87, Chimecho (Delta Species) at $750.00, Mythical Pokemon Collection Box (Shaymin) at $600.00, Arceus & Dialga & Palkia GX at $559.16, and Umbreon (Prime) at $549.45.

Knocking on the Door

Five names sit within half a percent of their peak. Sabrina's Gengar is $600.87 against a $603.90 high from 2025-03-27. Furious Fists Booster Box is $4717.50 against $4742.51 from 2026-05-05. Unified Minds Single Pack Blister (Sudowoodo), Rocket's Scyther, and Judge (Full Art) round out the group, all off their ATH by -0.5%.

7 Day Gainers

Hypno (H12) ran from $111.39 to $229.99, +106.5%. Genesect - BW101 went from $26.52 to $51.01, +92.3%. Dragonite - 119/181 (Cosmos Holo) moved from $5.33 to $9.71, +82.2% on 329 listings of depth, real volume behind it. Seviper - SM46 (Prerelease) Staff climbed from $19.46 to $33.67, +73.0%, but only 5 listings deep. Take the size of that move with the size of that book.

7 Day Losers

The First Partner Collection 2026 rookies gave back a chunk of their run: Treecko - 055 -50.2% ($23.33 to $11.62, depth 36), Torchic - 056 -50.1% ($26.54 to $13.25, depth 86), Chespin - 058 -46.1% ($13.37 to $7.21, depth 98), Fennekin - 059 -39.6% ($13.52 to $8.16, depth 102), Froakie - 060 -38.4% ($15.33 to $9.44, depth 105). Decent depth on all five, this reads as a set that lagged the market after an early spike, not a collapse. Elsewhere, High Pressure System fell -49.0% on just 7 listings, Rayquaza ex (Delta Species) dropped -44.3% ($490.00 to $273.00, depth 31), Cinderace VMAX -38.0% (depth 279), Ampharos V (Full Art) -34.7% (depth 295), and Shaymin EX 2015 (Rowan Stavenow) -33.9%.

1 Day Spikes

Hypno (H12) again, +97.0% same day ($116.76 to $229.99). Zekrom - 50/99 (Next Destinies) +62.1% ($7.17 to $11.62). Riolu - BW33 +36.7%. Meddling Sparks Premium Collection +17.4%. Team Aqua's Kyogre - 3/95 +16.3% on 33 listings.

Solo Variant Watch

Three reverse holos jumped on their own while the rest of their sets sat still, flagged as solo-variant moves: Bellsprout +111.7% on 5 listings, Wailmer +98.8% on 9 listings, Poliwag +97.5% on 13 listings. Only the flagged printing moved in each case, siblings unchanged. Read these as repricing artifacts on thin books, not demand signals.

Artist Premiums

Asako Ito commands a 12.06x premium across 35 cards, the widest gap on the board by a mile. Keiko Fukuyama sits at 3.25x (20 cards), Susumu Maeya at 2.55x (10 cards). On the cold end, Milky Isobe trades at 0.25x across 22 cards and "Big Mama" Tagawa at 0.26x across 16.

Track Record

Monthly mint alerts hit 23% at 7 days (avg return +2.6%) and 41% at 30 days (avg return +10.8%). Seven day gainer signals hit 23% at 7 days (+1.0% avg) but 47% at 30 days (+6.1% avg). Seven day loser signals hit 47% at 7 days (avg -7.4%) and 58% at 30 days (avg -17.3%), the most reliable read on the sheet, for better or worse.
