Who says the country is in a recession? As the stock market continues to trend downward, lately, perhaps investors might want to turn their eye toward another market: the trading- card market. One eager investor will be the winner of an eBay auction offering a 2010 Bowman Chrome Stephen Strasburg superfractor rookie card numbered 1/1. Six days into a 10-day auction, the lead bid is at $14,800 for the Washington Nationals rookie pitcher who has yet to make his big-league debut. The seller, eBay user dunksb_sz10, claims on the listing to have pulled the valuable card out a regular pack of Bowman Chrome cards. The Denver Post; Getty Images
