Forge Global said the share prices of the seven privately traded companies have outperformed the S&P 500 index’s publicly traded so-called “magnificent seven” that have fueled much of the gains in the stock market in recent years: Tesla, Apple, Nvidia, Amazon, Microsoft Corp., Alphabet Inc. and Meta Platforms Inc.

Just don’t run to look for stock symbols for these assets on your trading terminals – for individual investors to trade privately-held stocks, they must qualify as an accredited investor, which is someone with a net worth of $1 million outside the value of their primary home. We can only hope for some loud IPOs in the future. I think Databricks, Stripe and Rippling may be the first to do this, because at least there have been conversations about it. So we mark the names for ourselves and wait.
