Private Equity: The catch-up trade may be coming. Private equity doesn’t price like Apple stock. It doesn’t trade every second. And on days where there isn’t a real transaction, many private equity funds rely on pricing models to estimate value. That’s where the “40% rule” comes in. If public markets rip higher, private equity can look like it’s lagging. But the real price discovery often happens when there’s an IPO, acquisition, or sale. And with SpaceX blowing the IPO window wide open, we’ll likely start to see more private companies come public. That’s why private equity may be setting up for a massive catch-up trade. This is not investing advice. Private equity involves risk, illiquidity, valuation uncertainty, and is not appropriate for all investors. #PrivateEquity #Investing #AlternativeInvestments #financialeducation - @lifegoalinvestments
