The world of investing has faced a difficult period recently. It can feel like nearly every asset class is declining, but a closer look reveals pockets that have weathered the storm.
Enter alternative assets. We had a fascinating conversation with serial entrepreneur Slava Rubin, co-founder of Vincent, a leading platform for discovering alternative investments. Vincent recently announced the launch of VALT Asset Management. VALT gives investors access to alternative assets traditionally reserved for institutions. These assets include private equity, cryptocurrencies, collectibles, real estate, art, and private credit — now available to retail investors.
Interestingly, some of these asset types have actually appreciated in the current market environment. We discussed the virtues of diversifying a portfolio into these areas, what allocations might make sense, and whether the classic 60/40 portfolio is obsolete.
Have you ever considered investing in Michael Jordan’s game-worn sneakers, an original Monet, or legendary football memorabilia like Pelé’s collectibles? Whether you’re an investor or a devoted collector of alternative assets, there should be something of interest here for you.
