Median time series

Configuration anatomy

Every Bagonomics aggregation is variant-specific — meaning size, leather, color, and hardware are all separately tracked. Each attribute carries its own pricing fingerprint:

• Size (BB): determines the broad buyer pool. Smaller sizes carry Instagram-driven demand premiums; larger sizes lean travel/work-use and tend to trade thinner.
• Leather (Taurillon): the durability and aging profile of this leather defines part of the secondary-market story. See the glossary for our leather entries.
• Color (Noir (Black)): a neutral color anchors liquidity; rare colors compound premium-to-retail because supply is constrained and demand persists.
• Hardware (Gold Hardware): determines pairing aesthetics — gold-tone hardware typically commands a small but consistent premium over silver-tone equivalents.

Investment positioning

On our four-tier framework the Louis Vuitton Capucines BB Taurillon Noir (Black) Gold Hardware sits in the mid-luxury segment, with a 3-year compound annual return that reads as depreciation territory — losing real purchasing power across the period. The investable interpretation depends on the holder's horizon: for short-term (12–24 month) decisions the operative metrics are premium-to-retail and current liquidity (90-day sample size); for multi-year horizons CAGR-3y/5y carry more weight.

Cross-asset framing: at a -1.1% 3-year CAGR the variant trailed inflation by a meaningful margin, marking real-terms negative. See Bag vs S&P 500 for the interactive cross-asset comparator.

Forward considerations

Negative premium-to-retail indicates ample secondary supply versus demand. Mean-reversion toward retail is more common than further discount expansion, absent a structural catalyst. Sample-size depth (174 90-day observations) underwrites high-confidence statistical readouts; any next-quarter move will be detected within 30-45 days of materializing in the sales mix.

Methodology

Variant statistics derive from cross-platform sales aggregated into a 90-day rolling window; we compute median, percentiles, and sample. Outliers are filtered with a 1.5×IQR Tukey fence prior to median calculation. CAGR is the geometric annualized return between anchor aggregations. Premium-to-retail compares the latest 90-day median to current boutique retail in USD. Full statistical methodology at median and IQR methodology and CAGR methodology.
