I also caught a fascinating session on reshaping portfolios with alternatives. Christopher Getter (Simplify) hit the nail on the head, noting that the “alternatives bucket” is really about the ability to diversify exposures. He highlighted tools like the Simplify Private Credit Strategy ETF (PCR) and the Simplify Managed Futures Strategy ETF (CTA) as key diversifiers in this environment.
The Grand Finale
To wrap up the content, the legendary Kara Swisher sat down with Bob Pisani for a fireside chat that could have easily gone on for hours. As word spread, the room packed out to hear them riff on AI, prediction markets, and tech icons.

Of course, we couldn’t leave Vegas without a party. The closing bash landed on St. Patrick’s Day, providing the ultimate backdrop for the community to toast to a successful week. I’m incredibly proud to work with the VettaFi team that brought this event to life.
