    Investing in Economic Mobility: Building a Path to Opportunity | Global Conference 2026

    Michael Milken, Ted Cruz, Brad Gerstner, Kevin Hassett

    The "Invest America Act" mandates the automatic creation of direct-ownership investment accounts for millions of children, a program championed by Senator Ted Cruz and economists like Kevin Hassett as a vehicle for "Opportunity Conservatism" rather than government redistribution. Supported by massive private philanthropy from figures such as the Dells and Ray Dalio, the initiative allows tax-free annual contributions up to $5,000 with projected account values reaching $700,000 by age 35. By targeting the bottom of the income distribution, the White House aims to cultivate a nationwide constituency of young investors while driving a political shift toward expanding personal capital ownership beyond current eligibility thresholds.

    Why Secondary Markets Are Eating the IPO | All-In Liquidity Secondary Markets Panel

    Brad Gerstner, Gavin Baker, Kelly Rodriques, Chamath, Jason, Friedberg, Naval, Thomas Lafont, Keller

    In Q1 2025, the private market established secondary trading as a primary exit mechanism for late-stage companies like Anduril and SpaceX, with employee transactions accounting for 31% of primary venture activity as shares shifted to a premium valuation. Institutional players such as Schwab and Vanguard are democratizing access through regulated interval funds, prompting a structural shift where venture capital firms actively manage capital recycling to return liquidity to limited partners. While panelists identify AI infrastructure and space logistics as key investment areas within a "parabolic" but fundamentally sound market, they also warn of emerging regulatory pressures and the risks of retail investors lacking the discipline to navigate cyclical drawdowns.
