When investors think of alternative investments, they typically consider hedge funds, private equity, structured products, derivatives, or cryptocurrencies. But recently, a more unexpected asset has entered the spotlight: the Hermès Birkin bag.
Luxury resale platforms like Rebag and Baghunter report that Birkin bags have averaged a 14.2 percent annual value increase, outpacing the S&P 500’s long-term average return of roughly 10.5 percent. Like other collectible assets — fine art, vintage cars, and rare wines — luxury handbags can outperform traditional markets. However, this growth tends to unfold over long periods and is usually limited to select high-demand items. Success in this space requires a discerning eye for selecting assets with long-term appreciation potential.
