A Strange Year Begins Winding Down

Though the pandemic upended many normal seasonal trends this year, the market did begin its typical “holiday season” slowdown in November - however, activity remained well above levels of last year. It is unknown how the latest Covid-19 circumstances may affect the market in December, which is usually by far the slowest month of the year.  

More importantly, we hope you and your loved ones stay safe and well during this challenging holiday season.
