The Walmart'ization of Art

New Post (29 ) : The Walmart’ization of Art

The US just ran a print run of USD600Bn.

And where is that money ending up ?

Keep an eye on the prices of gold, silver, diamonds, precious stones and hold your breath---ART.

Sotheby’s and Christies have never had it so good.

With all of the usual asset classes having a long shadow of doubt and gloom cast on them investors with loads of free money courtesy the Fed are turning to art as never before.

So much for a planned recovery.

How long this Walmart’ization of art is here to stay remains to be seen though.
