This may be yet another paradoxic, self defeating aspect of capitalism. Capital seeks higher investment returns, and finds private, “alternative” investments like venture capital. This creates a positive feedback cycle where the higher returns from private/alternative investments like venture capital in turn lower the returns of traditional investments like the stock market, which leads to more capital seeking higher return elsewhere, rinse and repeat.
