2026 Market Perspective

Bard Malovany |

Each year at about this time, we publish our Market Commentary: a review of the prior year in the financial markets and our view of the current market and its prospects. It is not a prediction of market performance over the coming year; it is our view of the
internal dynamics of the equity and fixed income markets, what we think it means, and how we have been modifying our portfolio construction in response.

Not surprisingly, it does contain a hue of AI, which we use to help ideate, define and write. But hopefully, it still has our imprint on it, as it, ultimately, was still written and edited by us. The thoughts are our own, they are subject to refinement, and,
to that end, we welcome your thoughts and feedback.

Thank you for reading, and, as always, we are deeply appreciative of the trust and confidence you place in us.
