That's bad
Only way how MR would go up is if Amex stops offering these 150k 100K and 75K offeres, and only offer 25K like spg and Alaska Airlines card.
Well spg fell by 25% too. Kind of challenges your point.
25%?
2.2cpp * .75 = 1.65cpp, seems accurate.
From like more than 2 years ago?
SPG lost most of the churnability. They were much easier to accumulate a couple of years ago.
this would only strengthen the case on why it should go up in price
SPG dropped from 2.2 like 4-5 years ago to 1.7/8. Amex MR dropped from 1.5 six months ago to 1.3. And yes, I believe the main reason to the SPG drop was supply and demand. MUCH more people in the game nowadays than 4-5 years ago.
Amex MR is now 1.3-1.35 for 2 reasons.. 1) yes there are slightly more out there but I dont think its much more than there was last year.. 2) I know for a fact (by admission) that brokers collectively pushed down the price.. The only way it can go back up if the big players (500k-1M+ per transaction minimum) who sell dont sell under 1.5 otherwise this is here to stay.Bottom line is just use your points..
