Across liquid coins, crypto came in at -0.2 %. Out in front was COTI at +20.6 %, with ROBO trailing at -16.0 %. Crypto remains the most volatile asset class covered here. Daily swings of this magnitude are normal and say little about the long-term trend.

Commodities & precious metals

Precious metals averaged -1.4 %, energy and industrial commodities +0.2 %. Cyclical commodities outran metals, often a sign of growth and demand optimism. Gold is a traditional hedge, while crude oil and copper act as growth barometers.

Foreign exchange (Forex)

The key pair EUR/USD moved -0.04 %: the US dollar firmed against the euro, showing relative strength. A firmer dollar tends to weigh on commodities and emerging markets, a weaker one supports them. Prices are drawn from CME FX futures.

Real assets: new hammer prices

Since 24 July 2026, 209 new hammer prices were added. There is no daily close here: trading happens when a lot is called, and only then does a price exist.

New hammer prices per asset class
Asset class	Records	Median	Highest hammer price	Price
Trading cards	204	$5,400	Crystal Lugia #149 · Aquapolis (2003) 24 Aug 2026	$132,000
Classic cars	5	$258,000	Porsche 911 Turbo (993) · 1995–1998 11 Aug 2026	$320,000

Median = the middle hammer price among this window's records, not the value of a fixed position. It moves simply because different items come up for sale each week. The price index below avoids exactly this composition effect. Prices are hammer prices including the buyer's premium.

No lot changed hands in watches in this window. The most recent recorded sale is 48 days back (13 June 2026). With few, high-priced items such gaps are the norm, not a data outage.

The trading-card price index stands at 537.6, +191.2 % against a year ago (base 100 at the first quarter covered, as of 28 August 2026). It measures price changes of the same good rather than the median of a changing offer. Against the previous reading (29 June 2026) that is -2.4 %, a quarterly figure rather than a daily one.

Residential property: an official index, not a hammer price

For residential property there are no individual sales to report: prices there are formed in statistics, not under the hammer. The latest available reading is 1 June 2026, 60 days before this report. The gap reflects the publication lag of the sources rather than missing data.

Residential property indices
Series	Level	Prior print	1 year
United States (Case-Shiller) 1 Jun 2026	336.7	+0.4 %	+1.7 %
Germany 31 Mar 2026	153.4	+0.3 %	+1.4 %
Euro area 31 Mar 2026	157.4	+0.9 %	+4.6 %

Data note 1

Cross-asset correlations

Over the past 90 trading days, S&P 500 and Gold were moderately correlated, with a correlation coefficient of +0.46. A value near +1 means they move together, near −1 they move opposite, near 0 there is no linear link. For portfolio diversification, low or negative correlations are valuable because they smooth out volatility.

Summary

In summary, July 31, 2026 was a day of a mixed picture across the markets Alysly tracks: 41 of 95 assets gained. The headline came from Aave at -5.8 %. Across asset classes, commodities led (+0.2 %) while precious metals lagged (-1.4 %). The correlation between S&P 500 and Gold stood at +0.46, a gauge of how much diversification benefit combining the two currently offers. Away from the capital markets, the top hammer price was Porsche 911 Turbo (993) · 1995–1998 at $320,000, a price struck at a single table rather than on an exchange. A single trading day is only a small slice, though: over longer periods, asset classes, regions and holding period shape a portfolio's result more than any one day's move.
