Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Economic & Market Update Dinner, and to Manny Hodzic of William Blair for a conversation that went exactly where the room wanted to take it.

Manny's opening point stuck with a lot of people: the headline numbers have been healthy, but what's happening underneath the market looks very different. From there the questions took over — AI disruption, international vs. US, small caps in a shifting rate environment, the election, energy and data centers.

A few threads worth watching:
→ The market has been rewarding AI capital spending. The question ahead is whether it starts rewarding AI monetization instead.
→ Where a company is headquartered says less than where its revenue comes from.
→ There is no AI without data centers, and no data centers without fresh water, natural gas, and electricity.
Full conversation linked below.

Twenty-five years ago this morning, an ordinary Tuesday became a day none of us would forget.

We remember the nearly 3,000 people who lost their lives, the families who still carry that loss, and the first responders and volunteers whose courage defined the hours and months that followed.

Today, our team pauses to reflect and to say thank you.

We will never forget.
