The world of investing has been challenging lately. It often feels like nearly every asset class is slipping day by day. Yet if you look deeper, some areas have weathered the storm.
Consider alternative assets. We recently had an insightful conversation with serial entrepreneur Slava Rubin, co‑founder of Vincent, a leading platform for discovering alternative investments. Vincent has launched VALT Asset Management, a vehicle that gives investors access to alternative assets typically reserved for institutional buyers. These offerings include venture capital, cryptocurrencies, collectibles, real estate, art, and private credit—made available to individual investors.
Surprisingly, some of these asset classes have actually appreciated in the current market environment. In the interview we discussed the benefits of diversifying a portfolio into alternatives, appropriate allocation strategies, and whether the traditional 60/40 portfolio is obsolete.
Have you ever considered investing in Michael Jordan’s game‑worn sneakers, a Monet painting, or collectibles tied to football legend Pelé? Whether you’re a traditional investor, a collectibles enthusiast, or simply curious about alternative assets, there’s something of interest here.
