How Magic: The Gathering sets usually behave
Value concentrates hard: across 393 measured Magic: The Gathering sets, the single top card typically holds about 8% of a set's total card value.
New Magic: The Gathering sets have typically settled about 34% below their release-week price, with most of that easing done within roughly 16 weeks (measured across 70 recent releases).
Over the first 30 weeks after release, that easing runs about 28% deeper than the market's own drift.
Across 71,958 measured breakaway moves in our archive, upward moves outnumber drops about 1.5 to 1.

“One active week” means the daily market price changed in only one week of the move window. A single-week jump on an otherwise flat quote can be a stale price rather than a sustained move.
