The iconic football rookies from the 80s in PSA 9 or PSA 10. Specifically, Montana, Elway, Rice, Barry and Emmitt RCs.
So, flipping?
A gembryo is the early developmental stage of a perfect card.
6 months is a real short time in sports. It usually takes at least 10 years before a guy really develops a reputation.
Those football guys are all known quantities. There really isn't anything that should make those pop off. But, there isn't anything that should have made Shaq or Payton Manning pop off either. Seems like everybody just decided to go buy Shaq then repost it for 5 times the price.
It looks a whole lot like the whole GameStop thing. People buy up a bunch of stock then post a ton on social media and dump off their stock when the zerg flocks to whatever is trending. Maybe you should be asking this question on Reddit.
Someone pointed out to me recently that Jerry Rice 1986 Topps card is the 2nd most submitted card to PSA ever. Behind Rickey Henderson 1980 Topps card. I haven't verified this. But something like 50,000 Rickey Henderson RCs and 46,000 Jerry Rice RCs have been submitted. The 10 rates are low.
IMO, You should really be following sports and watching who is performing well.
I picked up some of these guys recently:
Pete Crow-Armstrong
Otto Lopez
Chandler Simpson
William Contreras
Andy Pages
Jackson Chourio
Trea Turner
Nasim Nunez
Elly De La Cruz
Thinking about getting some:
Gabriel Moreno
Probably throwing money away! You can be a really good baseball player and your cards may still be worth nearly nothing.
I agree with the above comment about iconic 80s cards in high grade.
I would add Bonds, Gwynn and Marino
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
Yep, take even trout, how many who paid big bucks 6-10 years ago for his cards are feeling good now.

Joe Jackson
Cardgeek - Ken Griffey Jr Upper Deck is by far the number 1 most submitted. it's over 132,000.
For investing purposes, if we are talking about vintage - centered nice looking psa 4 - 7. 8 and up will probably be too expensive for most of us if its a highly sought after player, but 8 could come into to play for Carl Y, Reggie, etc.
Rarer type cards like opc, topps tiffany psa 10, some inserts.
Seems some of our members are having great success hustling at yard sales, so consider opportunities outside the retail market as well.

Sounds like a John Sterling home run call for him.
The thing I love most about these threads is how the OP will drop a question like a hunk of raw meat in a tiger enclosure and then disappear.

NBA all the way right now.
Victor Wembanyama has the highest ceiling of any player since Kareem and has been dominating. Cooper Flag is also a very promising young star.
You also get late year cards of three all time greats: Lebron, Durant, and Curry.
