Invest in what you know, what has intrinsic value, or what can provide expected cash flows in the future. If an investor considers Bitcoin as an "alternative" investment, then my answer would be a resounding NO. The purported benefits of Bitcoin are that it is an alternative currency and store of value, yet Bitcoin does not satisfy the conditions that we typically use to classify either a currency or store of value.

While collectibles have had a great increase in value in recent years, there is a lot of evidence that these returns are incredibly heterogeneous and nuanced. For example, recent research on collectible coins shows that the returns during the 2008–2015 period of MS (Mint State) coins were approximately 4% per year, yet the returns to similar coins graded G (good) were less than -- 5% per year. The same kind of dispersion can be shown for baseball cards, wine, art, etc. If investors are going to put their hard-earned money in collectibles and luxury items, they need to know the particular market that they are investing in well.</p> </div> </div> <div class="qna"> <div class="flex justify-between py-24 border-b border-gray-400 md:items-center qna-header hub-expertqa"> <div class="items-center md:flex"> <img alt="Richard Warr, Professor of Finance at Poole College of Management, NC State University" class="mb-12 mr-16 rounded-full md:mb-0" height="80" loading="lazy" src="https://m.foolcdn.com/media/dubs/images/httpsg.foolcdn.comeditorialimag.2e16d0ba.fill-80x80-c100_39SL7PQ.jpg" width="80"> <div> <h3 class="text-gray-1100 text-24 mb-4px">Richard Warr</h3> <div class="font-sans text-14">Professor of Finance at Poole College of Management, NC State University</div> </div> </div> <svg class="collapsed-icon w-24px h-24px ml-4px" viewBox="0 0 320 512"> <title>angle-down</title> <path fill="currentColor" d="M151.5 347.8L3.5 201c-4.7-4.7-4.7-12.3 0-17l19.8-19.8c4.7-4.7 12.3-4.7 17 0L160 282.7l119.7-118.5c4.7-4.7 12.3-4.7 17 0l19.8 19.8c4.7 4.7 4.7 12.3 0 17l-148 146.8c-4.7 4.7-12.3 4.7-17 0z"></path> </svg> <svg class="expanded-icon w-24px h-24px ml-4px" viewBox="0 0 320 512"> <title>angle-up</title> <path fill="currentColor" d="M168.5 164.2l148 146.8c4.7 4.7 4.7 12.3 0 17l-19.8 19.8c-4.7 4.7-12.3 4.7-17 0L160 229.3 40.3 347.8c-4.7 4.7-12.3 4.7-17 0L3.5 328c-4.7-4.7-4.7-12.3 0-17l148-146.8c4.7-4.7 12.3-4.7 17 0z"></path> </svg> </div> <div class="qna-content pt-16px"> <p data-block-key="qye88"><b>Why do you think the ultra-wealthy are more likely to hold alternative investments than middle-class or mass affluent investors?</b></p><p data-block-key="2bsdd">The ultra wealthy are more likely to hold assets outside of retirement plans which typically have a lot of restrictions. So for many ordinary investors, these asset classes are just not available. For the ultra wealthy, alternative assets can provide higher expected returns, in part because they are much less liquid. But holding illiquid assets really only makes sense for those who have a good proportion of their portfolio already in liquid, traditional assets. High net worth investors can also afford to be more speculative - by definition they already have a lot of wealth, so they can take more risks. </p><p data-block-key="15vne"><b>Should most investors consider more alternative investments, like cryptocurrency, luxury items, or direct lending? Why or why not?</b></p><p data-block-key="a2upi">Alternative investments encompass a wide range of products. Real estate and private equity make a lot of sense for higher net worth investors. They tend to be quite illiquid, so should only be held in a portfolio that has a liquid portion - such as traditional assets like bonds and stocks.</p><p data-block-key="4sjls">My definition of an investment is something that has a fundamental value that we can estimate and that generates some sort of income stream (although that income can be retained in the asset -- such as a stock that doesn't pay dividends). Many alternative assets don't really satisfy this definition, and so in my opinion, many alternative investments aren't really investments. They are just stuff. Whisky, fine wine, art, and baseball cards aren't really investments. They are really more like aspirational items that high net worth investors might like to buy. I wouldn't seriously consider these to be a part of anyone's portfolio, but if someone wants to collect wine or art, then all power to them, but it shouldn't really be considered to be part of an investable asset class.</p><p data-block-key="eg0vi">Cryptocurrency is more of a speculative instrument rather than an asset. Crypto generates no income and is very very hard to establish a fundamental value on, as a result, it's almost impossible to make a judgment as to whether any particular crypto is over or undervalued. With crypto you are just making a bet that it will increase in value, but there are really no fundamentals that can support any particular valuation.</p><p data-block-key="678gb"><b>Holdings of alternative investments are projected to increase by over 300% between 2010 and 2025.

As more money chases a limited supply of stocks and bonds, investors start looking for additional places to place their money.

Does this signal a loss of confidence in the hedge fund model?</b></p><p data-block-key="7ekao">Hedge fund returns have really been overhyped for years. Hedge funds are incredibly expensive from a fee point of view and furthermore, buying and selling them is extremely complex. They are basically very expensive investments that in general, don't provide better performance than a diversified portfolio of stocks and bonds. My concern would be that an institution would move from one over-hyped expensive investment to another. </p><p data-block-key="1aq0v"><b>Rare whisky, classic cars, wine, and handbags have increased in value by over 100% in the past 10 years.

If someone in the middle class took significant risks with alternative investments, losses would impinge upon their standard of living.
