It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes, or bags.

“It”, of course, is the Steadyhand Holiday Letter. 2013 has been a memorable year in the markets:

Stocks have pushed forward without a flinch.
Indeed, there’s been no sign of a stock market Grinch.
Bonds were weaker, which is no surprising story.
After all, they’ve been through a prolonged stretch of glory.
We’re pleased with the advice and services we deployed.
Not to mention the returns our clients have enjoyed!

It’s been a noteworthy year around the shop, too. In this year’s Holiday Letter, we reflect back on some of the highlights.

Happy Holidays!
