As private equity investors demand their money back, fund managers are taking once-illiquid investments public, only to watch them crater far below their so-called “net asset value.” From BlueRock to FS Specialty Lending, the numbers don’t lie—investors were sold fantasy valuations to keep the music playing.At the same time, the SEC is quietly dismantling the few guardrails meant to protect everyday investors, scrapping the Global Research Analyst Settlement and reopening the door for analysts and investment bankers to collude like it’s the dot-com bubble all over again. Former regulators now admit what many warned about years ago: Wall Street research was never about truth—it was marketing.This is a hard warning to individual investors: don’t be the greater fool in a rigged game of musical chairs. Do your homework, question valuations, and remember—on Wall Street, you’re not the client, you’re the product.
