Market barometer
Breadth = share of all tracked instruments (indices, liquid crypto, commodities, forex) with a positive daily change. Bars scale with the magnitude of each asset class's average daily return.
In focus: Uniswap
At -8.0 %, Uniswap was the day's most notable single move. The chart shows its trajectory over the selected range:
Indices on the day
Of the 16 benchmark indices tracked, 5 closed higher – so the majority slipped. DAX led the field at +0.75 %, while S&P 500 Informationstechnologie trailed at -0.40 %. The “52W” column shows where each index sits within its yearly range – a marker far to the right means it is trading close to its 52-week high.
Crypto: daily gainers & losers
From the 50 largest crypto assets by trading volume – illiquid micro-caps excluded.
Gainers
+2.6 %. ACE at +107.8 %, with EDEN trailing at -17.1 %. 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 +0.5 %, energy and industrial commodities -0.9 %. That is the classic pattern of a more defensive phase: metals bid, cyclical commodities softer. Gold is a traditional hedge, while crude oil and copper act as growth barometers.
| Name | Price | Change |
|---|---|---|
| Gold | 4437.3 | +0.38 % |
| Silver | 65.108 | +0.18 % |
| Platinum | 1756.9 | +1.43 % |
| Palladium | 1325.5 | -0.03 % |
| WTI crude | 81.25 | -2.34 % |
| Brent crude | 87.07 | -2.07 % |
| Gasoline | 3.128 | -0.27 % |
| Heating oil | 4.2506 | -0.04 % |
| Copper | 6.613 | +0.08 % |
Foreign exchange (Forex)
The key pair EUR/USD moved +0.31 % – the euro gained on the US dollar, so the dollar was relatively weaker. A firmer dollar tends to weigh on commodities and emerging markets, a weaker one supports them. Prices are drawn from CME FX futures.
| Pair | Price | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 1.1579 | +0.31 % | |
| 1.3533 | +0.36 % | |

Real assets: new hammer prices
Since 7 August 2026 the database has logged 42 new auction records. Unlike stocks or crypto, real assets are not quoted continuously — every figure in this section is a price someone actually paid.
| Asset class | Records | Median | Highest hammer price | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Trading cards | 41 | $4,200 | Crystal Charizard #146 — Skyridge (2003) 10 Aug 2026 | $102,000 |
| Classic cars | 1 | $320,000 | 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 — precisely the composition effect the price index below avoids. Prices are hammer prices including the buyer's premium.
No lot changed hands in watches in this window – the most recent recorded sale is 62 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 538.1, +251.9 % against a year ago (base 100 at the first quarter covered, as of 10 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 -2.0 % – a quarterly figure, not 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 May 2026 – 105 days before this report, which reflects the publication lag of the sources rather than missing data.
| Series | Level | Prior print | 1 year |
|---|---|---|---|
| United States (Case-Shiller) 1 May 2026 | 335.1 | +0.6 % | +1.1 % |
| Germany 31 Mar 2026 | 153.4 | +0.3 % | +1.4 % |
| Euro area 31 Mar 2026 | 157.4 | +0.9 % | +4.6 % |
Cross-asset correlations
Over the past 90 trading days, EUR/USD and Gold were strongly positively correlated, with a correlation coefficient of +0.60. 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 – they smooth out volatility.
| Pair | r (90d) | −1 … +1 |
|---|---|---|
| S&P 500 ↔ Bitcoin | +0.40 | |
| S&P 500 ↔ Gold | +0.47 | |
| Gold ↔ Crude oil (WTI) | -0.37 | |
| EUR/USD ↔ Gold | +0.60 |
Summary
Taken together, August 14, 2026 was a day of a mixed picture across the markets Alysly tracks: 32 of 80 assets closed higher. The headline came from Uniswap at -8.0 %. Across asset classes, crypto led (+2.6 %) while commodities lagged (-0.9 %). The correlation between EUR/USD and Gold was strongly positively correlated (+0.60) – 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. For long-term investors, though, single trading days are noise: what matters is broad diversification across asset classes, regions and time – not any one day's move.
