Invested Inc., a leading finance media company serving retail investors through industry-leading newsletters including Stocks & Income, today announced a strategic partnership with Collectibles.com, a category-defining social & technology platform with over 1.5 million registered collectors tracking over 30 million collectibles through the super app.

Together, the companies have launched HobbyCrunch™, a new weekly intelligence newsletter focused on the rapidly growing collectibles market as an emerging alternative investment class. The newsletter will deliver market insights, trend analysis, notable sales, and data-driven perspectives across categories including trading cards, sports memorabilia, comics, coins, and pop culture collectibles.

Collectibles have increasingly moved from niche hobby to mainstream asset class. High-profile transactions continue to validate the market’s financial relevance, including the recent sale of a rare Pokémon card for more than $16 million, which marks one of the highest prices ever paid for a trading card. As collectors and investors converge, demand for credible data and informed analysis has accelerated.

HobbyCrunch will combine Collectibles.com’s extensive proprietary dataset — spanning tens of millions of items with historical pricing, ownership, and market activity — with Invested Inc.’s proven editorial playbook and large-scale retail investor distribution. The result is a new category-defining publication designed to help readers better understand value, risk, and opportunity in the collectibles economy.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Invested on HobbyCrunch, blending our robust data ecosystem with their expertise in financial media to empower both newcomers to the hobby and seasoned collectors,” states Dietrich von Behren, Cofounder and Chief Business & Strategy Officer of Collectibles.com. “It's critical to always keep sight of what's most important—the underlying passion that drives the industry, as collecting isn't always viewed as an investment. However, as the collectibles market surges and more people enter it, this newsletter will deliver actionable intelligence needed to stay informed, educate, navigate trends and unlock value in this new alternative asset class.”

Invested Inc’s CEO Brandon Harris adds, “Our mission at Invested Inc. is to make investing more accessible by helping everyday investors understand emerging asset classes. Collectibles are rapidly evolving from passion-driven hobbies into a thriving alternative investment category, with markets for sports cards, memorabilia, comics and other assets seeing enormous growth. By combining Collectibles.com’s industry-leading data with Invested’s editorial and distribution engine, we believe HobbyCrunch can become the go-to newsletter for collectors and investors looking to understand trends, valuation and opportunities in the collectibles market.”

HobbyCrunch will publish weekly and is designed to serve both seasoned collectors and newer investors seeking exposure to collectibles as part of a diversified portfolio. Readers can subscribe to the free newsletter at HobbyCrunch.com.
