      • \n\t\t\t\t\tPSA results declined in November but were roughly in line with October when adjusted for the number of business days in each month.
        \n\t\t\t\t\tTCG and baseball were the primary categories driving November’s performance.\n\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n
      • \n\t\t\t\t\tPSA had a relatively quiet start to 2024 in terms of announcements and innovations.
        \n\t\t\t\t\tHowever, the latter two-thirds of the year has seen steady activity, including updates related to grader notes, eBay, GameStop, submissions, and offers.
        \n\t\t\t\t\tAs a result, there are many moving parts to keep an eye on as we head into 2025.\n\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n
