Fractional Art and Collectibles

Concrete data: Masterworks charges a 1.5% annual management fee plus 20% of profits, yet only 12% of listed artworks sold within two years—dismal turnover compared to the average stock. Over 2020–2023, the S&P 500's 8% annualized returns crushed art's 2–3% average, proving this segment is more marketing illusion than investment merit.
