The last 12 months have been pretty extraordinary by any measure. A global pandemic, a deep but short lived drop in the stock market followed by rapid increase. A recession that didn’t “behave” the way recessions are supposed to behave. The Black Lives Matter movement. Protests and an insurrection. Oh, and just a minor presidential election.
