3Private Equity's Dilemma
Private equity firms are stuck with 33,575 unsold businesses. They can't exit at investor-required valuations. The New York Times calls this a structural problem for the entire asset class, not just a backlog.
4Stock Markets Keep Hitting Records
Despite a global pandemic, supply chain crisis, 9% inflation, and Russia's invasion of Ukraine, stock markets have reached new highs. Robert Kiyosaki's 73 crash predictions and Michael Burry's 19 top calls couldn't derail the rally.
