Is demand actually higher than supply? This is all from future orders to be plugged into data centers that don't exist, that needs power that doesn't exist to earn a profit from a product that doesn't have profits that exist.

If I take out a 20B loan to buy all Pokemon cards on the market with an agreement to buy 95% of all future cards made for the next few years and use the Pokémon cards as an asset to secure the loan did I single handedly drive up demand for the foreseeable future even if there is no proof I will make good on the deal?
