Today, on ๐๐ง๐ญ๐๐ซ๐ง๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐๐ฅ ๐๐จ๐ฆ๐๐งโ๐ฌ ๐๐๐ฒ I invite you to reflect on the strength, resilience, and incredible contributions of women around the world.
So many women throughout history have broken barriers and opened doors, not because they wanted to be the only woman in the room, but because they believed there should be many more.
Imagine a future where women don't have to be exceptional just to belong. A world where leadership, opportunity and recognition are shared spaces, where women are not the only voice at the table but one of many.
The theme โ๐๐ข๐ฏ๐ ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐๐ข๐งโ reminds us that when we lift each other, share our knowledge, and support one another, regardless of gender, we all rise as a community.
Letโs continue building a world where women are empowered, opportunities are abundant, and women are one of many, not the only one.

Shutdowns are hardly a rarity. As of the end of 2025 the government had faced a total of 11 shutdowns, starting with the first shutdowns in the early 1980s. History shows these shutdowns have ranged from very brief to more prolonged, but even the longer ones have had limited market impact.

Past shutdowns have had little impact on investors, consumers, or financial markets. โEven longer historical shutdowns, which were disruptive and costly, did not move the stock market,โ says Jurrien Timmer, Fidelity's director of global macro.

While uncertainty about government shutdowns can generate worrisome headlines, the biggest risk for most investors may be the temptation to overreact to those headlines and make personal finance decisions based on fear and uncertainty.
If you already have an investment strategy built around your goals, financial situation, time horizon, and risk tolerance, you likely don't need to make any changes in response to headlines. "
