# Pinpoint Runs Ads In Today’s Wall Street Journal & New York Post Congratulating President Trump on 401(k) Reform

Published: 2026-04-07

April 7, 2026 – Today, [Pinpoint Policy Institute](/) is running ads in The Wall Street Journal and the New York Post congratulating President Trump on his proposed rule to open 401(k) retirement plans to alternative investments previously reserved for the wealthy and well-connected.

See the full-page New York Post ad here:

The ads note that:

“For decades, everyday Americans have been locked out of private equity and other high-growth alternative investments. While institutional investors, the financial elite, and even public-sector employees used these tools to build lasting generational wealth, hardworking families in the private sector have been boxed into a limited menu of options, watching from the sidelines as insiders got ahead.”

“Your administration can change that.”

“The proposed rule issued last week represents a good and meaningful start. It has the potential to cement the President’s legacy on the economy by giving all Americans the opportunity to achieve better returns.”

Further, the ads state: “The data is clear: As Charles Schwab [recently noted](https://www.schwab.com/learn/story/what-is-private-equity), global private equity has outperformed global stocks by more than six percentage points annually over the past 25 years. That gap, compounded over a career of savings, is the difference between retiring with security and retiring with anxiety.”
