Where to Invest $100,000 According to Experts
Investors face a dilemma. Headlines everywhere say tariffs and AI hype are distorting public markets.
Now, the S&P is trading at over 30x earnings—a level historically linked to crashes.
And the Fed is lowering rates, potentially adding fuel to the fire.
Bloomberg asked where experts would personally invest $100,000 for their September edition. One surprising answer? Art.
It’s what billionaires like Bezos, Gates, and the Rockefellers have used to diversify for decades.
Why?
Contemporary art prices have appreciated 11.2% annually on average
…And with one of the lowest correlations to stocks of any major asset class (Masterworks data, 1995-2024).
Ultra-high net worth collectors (>$50M) allocated 25% of their portfolios to art on average. (UBS, 2024)
Thanks to the world’s premiere art investing platform, now anyone can access works by legends like Banksy, Basquiat, and Picasso—without needing millions. Want in? Shares in new offerings can sell quickly but…

Price strength: Weekly close above 108,000. Bulls defended support and pressed higher.
Bull flags: Technical setups point to 186,000 to 192,000 targets. Multiple flags align near 190,000.
Macro tailwinds: Traders price in easier policy and easing tensions, lifting risk appetite.
Weekly scale chart, $BTCUSD holding the neckline. Range still 109K-124K.

“Weekly close above 108,000 signals trend resumption.”
“Bull flags converge near 190,000.”

Spot manipulation in altcoins before the drop
Altcoins face thin liquidity and poor oversight. You need clear rules and real data before you press buy.
Volume spikes: Sudden activity without news often precedes a dump. Treat it as a warning.
Whale flows: Large transfers to exchanges often signal planned selling. Track them.
Unlocks: Vesting events increase supply and pressure price. Check schedules first.
Tools: Nansen, DEXTools, LunarCrush help spot abnormal wallets, fake liquidity, and hype.
Risk controls: Research tokenomics, diversify, set stops, and avoid hype rooms on X and Telegram.
“Vigilance and due diligence are your best safeguards.”
“Data first, hype last.”

Analysts say the next BTC rally starts after OG selling cools
Onchain data shows older coins moving and profits realized at pace. The market needs that supply to fade.
Realized profits: About 1.7 billion dollars per day. Sellers locked in gains.
Realized losses: Roughly 430 million dollars per day. Turnover stayed high.
Revived supply: Older coins re-entered at about 2.9 billion dollars per day. Long-term holders drove flows.
“The source of resistance is long-term holders.”
“Stability here is absolutely key.”

Michael Saylor hints at Strategy’s next Bitcoin buy
Saylor posted a holdings chart and teased the “next orange dot.” Strategy remains the largest corporate holder.
The most important orange dot is always the next.
— Michael Saylor (@saylor)
12:08 PM • Oct 19, 2025
Treasury size: 640,250 BTC, valued above 71 billion dollars. Average cost near 74,000.
Recent purchase: 220 BTC bought between Oct 6 and Oct 12, about 27.2 million dollars at 123,561 per BTC.
mNAV pressure: Diluted mNAV near 1.30x and basic near 1.17x. Equity raises for more BTC face tougher math.
“The most important orange dot is always the next.”

Whales bet against the market, open 116 million in BTC shorts
Two large traders opened high-leverage shorts on Hyperliquid. Both sat in red as price bounced.
Whale 1: 700 BTC short, 10x, about 77 million dollars at 109,133. Liquidation near 150,084.
Whale 2: 147 BTC short, 40x, about 16.3 million dollars at 107,174. Liquidation near 111,550.
ETH side bet: 5,656 ETH short, 25x, about 22.9 million dollars at 3,915. Liquidation near 4,074.
“High leverage leaves little room for error.”
“Shorts depend on momentum, not hope.”
