According to the New York Post's Page Six column, a multimillionaire investor who deliberately keeps himself cash poor through a maze of trusts and byzantine financial arrangements, was ordered by a Supreme court judge to turn over $2 million worth of art, antiques, furs, and jewelry in order to satisfy a longstanding debt. According to the Post, the property in question includes work by Jasper Johns and Roy Lichtenstein.

Jeffrey Gundlach, the chief executive officer of DoubleLine Capital LP, was the victim of a multi-million dollar burglary last week. After returning to his Santa Monica residence, the so-called ”bond guru” found $10 million worth of assets missing including several paintings, a 2010 Porsche Carrera 4S, watches, wine, and cash. At least ten paintings, including pieces by Jasper Johns (b. 1930), Piet Mondrian (1872–1944), and Guy Rose (1867–1925) were taken. Gundlach, a well-known connoisseur of fine art, is offering a $200,000 reward for any information leading to the recovery of the goods.

The burglary occurred sometime between September 12 at 3PM and September 14 at 8PM as Gundlach was in New York at the Bloomberg Markets 50 Summit. The investigation is ongoing.
