Q4 2025 : The Year End Review
Summary: As we close the chapter on 2025, equity markets have proven remarkably resilient, rising in the face of high stakes trade policy shifts, higher for longer interest rates and significant geopolitical events. Countering these head winds, the secular growth themes in the technology sector, and particularly the AI revolution, provided robust appreciation for both the indexes and our managed portfolios. Although flattish in December, equities provided above average performance for the third consecutive year with the NASDAQ, the S&P 500, and the DJIA, up 20.35%, 16.38% and 12.97%, respectively.
