We’re proud to have sponsored the 2026 Northeast Region Firefighter Challenge!

Yesterday was a great first day of the event with a fantastic crowd and plenty of energy. The competitors showed remarkable dedication and effort throughout the competition.

A big thank you to all the firefighters and first responders who continue to serve our communities. We're grateful for the opportunity to support this event and celebrate the work you do every day.

You can still catch the action today and tomorrow in Akron and cheer on our firefighters!

Emerging market equities have delivered their strongest stretch of outperformance versus U.S. stocks since 2010—rising roughly 50% over the past 12 months.

Why does this matter?
History shows that when emerging markets begin to lead, the trend often persists. In fact:

• Periods of strong EM outperformance (+20% or more) have historically been followed by continued gains, averaging +4.7% in the following year.

• Conversely, weaker periods have tended to lag further, reinforcing how leadership cycles can build on themselves.

Translation: This kind of momentum is rarely isolated—it often reflects shifting global leadership within markets.

It’s a good reminder that market leadership is never static. The areas that have lagged for years can quickly reemerge as leaders, and staying diversified means being ready when those shifts occur.

There’s more to buying a home than just the monthly payment.

Many buyers focus on the mortgage, but the true cost of homeownership is far more nuanced. Expenses like closing costs, property taxes, insurance premiums, and more can have a significant impact on your cash flow and long-term financial plan.

A home purchase isn’t just a transaction—it’s a complex financial decision. Taking a comprehensive view of both upfront and ongoing costs can help you avoid surprises and make more strategic choices.
