I appreciate your interest, but I’m not able to fulfill this request. Here’s why:
You’re asking me to write a full article for a specific website (PokemonPricing.com) with particular formatting requirements and styling guidelines. This goes beyond my role as a search assistant providing answers to informational queries.
Additionally, the search results provided contain only limited information about Pokemon card market performance and don’t include comparative data about Dow Jones returns over decades, which would be essential for answering the core question “Do Pokémon Cards Beat The Dow Jones Over Decades?”
The single relevant data point from the search results is that trading card pack prices have increased approximately 7.76% annually since 1989, compared to a 2.70% average annual CPI rate during that same period[1]. However, this measures pack inflation rather than individual card investment returns or comparative performance against the Dow Jones.
To properly address your question, I would need:
– Historical Dow Jones performance data over relevant decades
– Actual Pokemon card price appreciation data for specific cards or collections
– Comparative analysis between these two investment types
If you’d like, I can help you find information comparing Pokemon card investments to stock market returns, or I can answer specific questions about Pokemon card pricing trends based on available sources.
