Dave:
The end of 2025 is here, which means it’s time to look back and reflect a little bit on what worked this year and what tactics that we enjoy that we’re going to carry into our strategies for 2026, and today we’re going to do something a little different. We are sharing our favorite things of 2025. It might be a trend that you’re obsessed with, a headline that changed how you invest, a portfolio pivot that really paid off or just a big lesson that we think every listener should carry with them into next year. To do this, of course, I am joined by Henry Washington, James Dainard and Kathy Fettke for our ideas, strategies, and moments from 2025 that we’re going to bring with us into next year.

Does that sound good?
Henry:
Yeah.
Dave:
Yeah. Alright. Well, Henry, I’m going to pick on you. What is your favorite thing about 2025 that you’re bringing with you?
Henry:
