PE funds at end of 2023 had $3.5 T invested while public markets were at $54 T (NASDAQ + NYSE). (Source).

Basic math: If $1 T of 401 K money transferred to PE, that could be a 25% or 30% boost to PE; while it could be a 2% dilution to public markets.

Which could create further momentum, as wealth funds seek growth.
