Wall Street loads up on surprising $2.1tn asset class
Bank of America. UBS. JP Morgan. They’re all building (or have already built) massive investments in one $2.1tn asset class—and it’s not what you think. It’s not private equity or real estate, but fine art. Why?
In partnership with Masterworks, data from Citi shows it’s a potent diversifier with low correlation, and certain segments have even outpaced traditional investments. Take blue-chip contemporary art, which has outpaced the S&P 500 by 64% (1995-2023).
Masterworks knows the power of art investing, with their platform giving 900k+ users the opportunity to invest in this asset class as part of their overall portfolio strategy. In fact, from their 23 exits so far, Masterworks investors have realized representative annualized net returns like +17.6%, +17.8%, and +21.5%* (among assets held for longer than one year).
With so many users, Masterworks offerings can sell out quickly.

Hey,
Jason here. Making the weekly transcripts is a lot of work. Yes, AI does a decent amount of it, but frankly, at this point, it kind-of sucks. It takes me more time than I want to admit each week to fix it, ad links, etc., and the data we get from Beehiiv indicates that most of you don’t necessarily get a lot of value from it.
So we are considering ending the publication of transcripts. The fact that Apple and others are beginning to offer transcripts inside their podcast platforms is making this decision even easier to consider.
But before making the call, we wanted to send a note out and ask you directly. Please pick the answer from the one-question survey below that best matches up with your opinion on the transcripts.
Thanks for being a subscriber and listener, and giving us your feedback!
Jason
