Market Signals from the Ultra-Wealthy | TIGER 21 Founder on CNBC Power Lunch 

TIGER 21 Founder and Chairman Michael Sonnenfeldt recently joined CNBC Power Lunch with Brian Sullivan to discuss how seasoned wealth creators balance growth with risk management in today’s dynamic economic landscape. 

According to Sonnenfeldt, many affluent investors are adopting a more defensive posture—stepping back slightly from traditional assets like real estate and increasing allocations to alternatives that support preservation and liquidity, such as cash, fixed income, gold, and even Bitcoin.  

Private equity remains a strong holding for TIGER 21 Members, reflecting belief in long-term value outside public markets, while also diversifying into a wider range of assets as a way to navigate market uncertainty.
