Cabrera Capital Markets Advisory Group has published its latest Q4 2024 Quarterly Newsletter, which highlights notable M&A and capital market activity in the U.S. across various market sectors.

Investors are eager for liquidity events and are strategically positioning themselves for growth in 2025.
