Last November, Paul Allen's historic art collection shattered the record for the largest-ever sale in auction history.
The fact that the blue-chip art market is still setting records amid major drawdowns in financial markets, and macroeconomic turmoil, highlights why it can be such a strong alternative diversifier. In fact, the high-end art market also remained resilient through downturns like the dot-com bubble and Great Financial Crisis in 2008.
But this time around, it's not just billionaires benefitting.
Thanks to Masterworks. This award-winning investment platform allows people to invest in shares of multi-million dollar art by names like Banksy and Picasso. So far, all 14 of Masterworks' sales have been profitable, the last 3 realizing 17.8%, 21.5%, and 35% net returns respectively.

Many dog owners have been surprised by a tongue to their face at some point with their dog. So what makes a dog lick? It's impossible to understand exactly why they do this because we cannot read their minds, but there are five logical possibilities. - Licking helps with hygiene. Dogs may use their tongues to clean a certain area of their body. They may have stepped in something and need to clean their feet. Saliva also has some healing powers and enzymes, so they may lick to clean a wound. Licking should not replace medical care if there is a wound.
- Licking builds companionship. Just like a dog mother licking her puppies, licking people is a way that they form a bond. It's a sign of affection.
- Licking gets attention. If you get a sloppy wet kiss on your face, you'll instantly be giving the dog attention. Any response will encourage your dog to continue, so try to understand why they need your attention.
- Licking shows submission. When dogs lick your hands and feet, they may be signaling to you that they respect you. They are naturally part of a pack and may use licking to show you they are happy with the social order at home.
- Licking lets dogs taste you. If you were crying, your dog might like the salty tears. Puppies might be hungry and licking you to taste something different.
If your dog licks excessively, there may be a bigger underlying issue. Talking to your vet about this issue is always a good idea. To discourage the behavior, try distraction tactics to redirect their attention to something else. | | | Image courtesy of Dog's Best Life. | | Did You Know:
Answer: True, but the owner needs to be waving their hands. Humans standing just 300 yards away are pretty much invisible to a dog if they are standing still. | | Final Bark
