The Contemporary Art Index is based on internal Legacy Invest analysis of the repeat-sales index of historical art market prices computed based on a value weighted-basis and focused on the Post-War & Contemporary Art category (as defined by the applicable auction house using Standard & Poor's CoreLogic Case-Shiller Home Price Indices Methodology) from 1995 to December 31, 2024. While Legacy Invest believes this graphic can be useful to help potential investors discern long term trends in art as an asset class, there are significant limitations to the utility of such comparative data, particularly over shorter time periods. Indices are unmanaged and a Legacy Invest investor cannot invest directly in an index. No compensation was provided for recognition.
