Trump's order adds risky alternative assets to 401(k)s

President Trump's order expands 401(k) access to alternative investments like crypto and private companies, potentially increasing returns but also risk. Critics warn these investments are riskier, less transparent, and may carry higher fees than traditional options, with liquidity concerns and untested market performance. The move could fundamentally alter retirement investing, requiring new products and increased investor education to navigate the complexities and potential legal challenges.
