Once the playground for high-net worth and institutional investors, alternative investing is opening up to individual investors like us through ETFs and Interval funds. Shana Orczyk, the founder and CEO of Banrion Capital, also known as "The Queen of Alternatives", educates us on the universe of alternative investments outside of collectibles, and how investors can weave them into their portfolios for more precise diversification and the potential for outsized returns. Plus, Fed Chair Powell has spoken from the mountaintop in Jackson Hole, and he's telling us that the time has come for the era of high interest rates to end. Act accordingly.
