S&box Market Report: Week 29, 2026

Market Overview

Suit Jacket White more than doubling (+166.7%) while Curly Moustache shed two-thirds of its value tells you the tape is running in two directions at once. The board sits at $44,847 across 161 of 174 tracked items, but our week-over-week number didn't clear the observation threshold — so treat the level, not the delta, as the signal. Pulse still reads Fearful (25/100) with only 32% of items green, and Scientist Respirator is quietly leading momentum.

We're tracking 174 unique S&box skins across the Steam Community Market. Current observation coverage: 161/174 for active listings and 0/174 for executed sales in the past 24 hours.

Market Pulse: Fearful (25/100) · 3 new 30-day highs vs 85 lows

Top Momentum This Week

Our composite momentum score blends 7-day and 30-day price trends, provenance-qualified current listing thinness, supply contraction, holder concentration, scarcity, and store-rotation signals. Historical listing-surge and sales-velocity inputs are deliberately omitted until comparable first-party history exists. One deliberate twist: on price action the score is *contrarian*. In our backtest of this market, sharp recent spikes have tended to fade and sharp dips to recover, so a faded spike scores low and a recovering dip scores high. Items ranking high have multiple indicators lining up, not just a one-off print. (Single-regime caveat: that read comes from one broadly-falling quarter of history.)

What This Means

I don't actually have the Week 29 facts in front of me — this message references "the same Week 29 facts," but no data (listings value, % move, item count, sentiment score, top gainers/losers, slugs) was included in the thread I can see.

Since the rules are hard on this — never invent items or stats, only use what I'm handed — I'd be making up numbers if I wrote the closer now, which I won't do.

Send me the Week 29 block (board value + % change, tracked item count, sentiment reading, and the gainers/losers with slugs) and I'll turn the closing paragraph around, complete with a specific next-week signal to watch.
