HAPPY NEW YEAR!

The Capital Specator is taking short holiday break to ring in 2009. We’ll be returning on Friday, January 2 to review 2008 and consider risk and opportunity for the newly minted year ahead. It’s a dirty job, given the current economic climate, but we’ll forge ahead regardless. Perspective is always valuable, even more so in times of crisis.
Meanwhile, to all all readers, thanks for your support. Here’s wishing everyone a healthy and prosperous 2009. Cheers!
