The Millionaire Next Door

What the Second Half of 2025 Could Mean for Investors with Peter Repetto (Ep. 79)


Listen Later

Markets have been anything but predictable in 2025, yet resilience continues to surprise investors. 

In this midyear outlook episode, Robert Curtiss is joined by Peter Repetto, Vice President and Investment Strategist at iCapital, to unpack where the economy stands and where it may be heading next.

With deep insights drawn from Peter’s team-wide strategy review, they explore how markets are absorbing trade volatility, policy shifts, and inflation risks and why there’s room for optimism. They also dive into key opportunities across both public and private markets, including middle-market buyouts, infrastructure, and asset-based lending.

  • Why “American exceptionalism” may still hold firm
  • What risks to watch for in the second half of 2025
  • Where private market opportunities are gaining traction
  • How to approach portfolio allocation in a data-driven, uncertain world
