Good morning!

While you were sleeping, the prediction market whales were busy. Here's what the smart money is betting on, plus today's top bond picks across sports, finance, politics, and tech.

News Briefing

The world is currently operating on a mix of high-stakes geopolitical drama and financial absurdity. While gold prices have rocketed to record highs of over $4,500—Wall Street is busy rallying on AI stocks again, seemingly unfazed by the news that the U.S. Navy might soon feature "Trump-class" battleships. In personal finance, the "100-month car loan" has officially entered the chat, meaning you can now finance a sedan for nearly a decade, likely finishing your payments just as the car becomes a vintage collectible. Meanwhile, Bitcoin slipped back under $88k, and in a victory for bizarre dieting trends, a man made headlines for eating 1,000 sardines in a month to lose weight—proving that while the market might be fishy, he definitely is.

Wall Street Isn’t Warning You, But This Chart Might

Vanguard just projected public markets may return only 5% annually over the next decade. In a 2024 report, Goldman Sachs forecasted the S&P 500 may return just 3% annually for the same time frame—stats that put current valuations in the 7th percentile of history.

Translation? The gains we’ve seen over the past few years might not continue for quite a while.

Meanwhile, another asset class—almost entirely uncorrelated to the S&P 500 historically—has overall outpaced it for decades (1995-2024), according to Masterworks data.

Masterworks lets everyday investors invest in shares of multimillion-dollar artworks by legends like Banksy, Basquiat, and Picasso.

And they’re not just buying. They’re exiting—with net annualized returns like 17.6%, 17.8%, and 21.5% among their 23 sales.*

Wall Street won’t talk about this. But the wealthy already are. Shares in new offerings can sell quickly but…
