📉 Bear Market Survival Guide

The markets have been rocky recently, with fears of a prolonged bear market looming. But here’s the silver lining: alternative investments can shine even in tough times. From real estate and fine wine to sports cards and private credit, diversifying your portfolio may act as a hedge when stocks falter.

✔️ Real assets like farmland and wine have historically held up during downturns.
✔️ Fractional investing platforms are lowering the bar to entry on alts like art, sports memorabilia, and private credit.
✔️ Liquidity matters—some alts take longer to cash out, so know your time horizon.

🍷 Wine vs. Tariffs

The wine industry might be heading into a storm. New tariffs targeting French and European wines could send prices soaring for U.S. consumers and shake up the investing landscape for wine collectors.

If you’ve been investing in wine as an inflation hedge, here’s what to watch:

✔️ Tariffs could drive up domestic wine values if foreign bottles become too pricey.
✔️ Short-term market turbulence may create opportunities for smart buying.
✔️ Luxury wine collecting may see shifts in demand and supply.
