Private Assets Are Coming to Your Portfolio… Be Ready
For years, Wall Street has wanted to be able to sell private assets to more individual investors. Recently, the Securities and Exchange Commission made some major rule changes that could make it possible.
The SEC has stated that private assets are acceptable. Motley Fool contributors, Tyler Crowe, Jon Quast, and Lou Whiteman, focus on bringing private assets and private equity to retail investors. They discuss Accenture's earnings surprise, with shares up 19% following better-than-expected revenue and earnings. Despite a 5% year-over-year revenue growth, the company guided for 3-6% growth in fiscal 2027.
The operating margin for Accenture rose slightly, and they returned all free cash flow to shareholders via share repurchases and dividends. While the stock is still relatively cheap, investors question whether the positive earnings represent a trend or an aberration.
