Markets need to hold upward trend; Bonds' miserable year...until now. The Double-dog Dare: Evaluating investment opportunities; the problem with private investments is liquidity. Is the risk worth the return? The problem with Private REIT's: Things are great until they aren't; what happens when investment funds "gate" distributions: You can't get your money out. Blackstone investors want their money back, thanks to falling real estate prices & contagion. Blackstone is another domino in a string with FTX and UK pension funds as the Fed pulls liquidity from markets. Could Blackston trigger a Fed pivot? The Greed Cycle: Too much money chasing too few assets. The risk of financial stability would trip the Fed to pivot. As the Fed dries up liquidity, leverage also dissipates. This is what it means for the Fed to "break" something. SEG-1: NASDAQ's Worst December in Years SEG-2: Double Dog Dares - Is It Worth the Risk?
