Instead of getting a young company with a lot of growth ahead, IPO investors are getting stocks that are already near the top of their valuations, Morgan Stanley argues. Experts say that despite barriers to investment — like high net worth standards and regulatory scrutiny — the shift to private markets is hard to stop. Deepwater offers venture capital funds that provide access to private market companies at early stages. To be sure, novice investors face hurdles exploring private markets, including steep fees and the lack of a public exchange investment vehicle. He added that public markets are still ripe with opportunity and shouldn't be ignored for the sake of private market investing.

Senior housing stocks are set to take off as the American population ages, according to Bank of America. Ventas' portfolio includes senior housing communities, medical office buildings and other health-care facilities. Bank of America sees "significant" senior housing operating margins upside ahead, driven by cyclical and secular growth. However, a nonrenewal and a conversion of the properties to Ventas' senior housing operating portfolio would provide an additional 1.2% boost to net operating income, he said. That said, Ventas is not the only senior housing REIT that Bank of America likes.

However, the team added, many of the factors driving net interest income are uncertain heading into the second half of the year. We don't like to see guidance misses, but bank interest income estimates depend on interest rates, which Wells Fargo has no real control over. Non-interest income increased 12% thanks to higher asset-based fees driven by an increase in market valuations.

That pullback has materialized and according to our Elliott Wave analysis of the bitcoin chart, support has possibly been formed in the zone of $59k - $49k. Looking at the 3-chart overlay below you'll find bitcoin, gold, and US 10-year yields since 2020. First is that gold and Bitcoin (blue and orange) have a very close positive correlation. Pulling it all together higher rates have a negative impact on all three; bitcoin, gold, and the stock market, which are all showing a positive relationship in recent months. In summary, being very bullish on the stock market, I would like to see bitcoin and gold move higher along with lower US yields.

London CNN —President Joe Biden had a shaky performance in last night’s presidential debate, triggering panic in the Democrat camp. Former President Donald Trump, meanwhile, repeated multiple falsehoods while doubling down on his record of cutting taxes and hiking tariffs during his first presidential term. If repeated in a second Trump term, many economists fear that kind of agenda could stoke inflation at a critical moment and add to America’s rapidly growing debt mountain. That could pull the typical year-end election relief rally forward, said Ed Clissold, chief US strategist at Ned Davis Research. The US dollar has also been reactive — it edged higher as initial CNN polling found that Trump was viewed as the winner of the debate.
