A Park Place Finance Strategy For Capital Preservation And Growth

In today's investment landscape, savvy accredited investors are grappling with what feels like never-ending market turbulence. Stock and bond markets have left many feeling disheartened, and investment fatigue is setting in. 

That’s why many investors are turning to alternative investments, seeking ways to mitigate risk while maximizing returns. And the private credit sector of the alternative universe, in particular, appears to be well-positioned to help investors achieve those objectives. 

Nowhere to Go?

Let's start by examining a few pressing challenges investors face today:

  1. Persistent Volatility: While volatility, as measured by the CBOE VIX volatility index, is down from the previous year, that doesn’t mean 2023 hasn’t been choppy for investors. And as noted by the following comments from Reuters, it doesn’t take much to get the markets roiling again.

  1. Anemic Returns: After a dismal performance year in 2022 when major stock and bond indices ended up underwater, many investors hoped 2023 would be a year of recovery. But as of this writing, Oct. 4, 2023, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was almost dead flat YTD.
  1. A Recession and the Markets: The fear of a potential recession is a dark cloud looming over investors' heads. As pointed out on Nasdaq.com recently, a recession can have a downward spiraling impact on the markets.

“The S&P 500 drops during a recession because companies have lower earnings due to decreased consumer spending. Investors then react negatively to this news by continuing to sell shares. This creates a vicious cycle, a downward spiral of market damage.” nasdaq.com Jun 21, 2023

 

And those concerns over a possible recession become more evident when recognizing the DJIA has given up all its gains in 2023 in the last few months.

An Attractive Option

As mentioned, many frustrated accredited investors have begun to look at a range of alternative investments to help reduce volatility, boost returns, and better protect their portfolios. The private credit market has drawn increasing attention due to its size and diversity and the fact it is uncorrelated to the public markets. And within that market, a fund that pools short-term real estate loans in residential investment properties is proving to offer attractive advantages to investors.
