The leadership read
A change at the top rarely stays at the top. Raymond James's move reshapes the layer beneath it in the sector as a new leader sets priorities and the team re-forms. Watch the first two or three appointments that follow; they signal direction more reliably than any statement.
Market context: MitchelLake's Talent Market Index sits at 100.2 (Neutral), down 1 on the prior month; Americas hiring signal is running easing (-1.8pts).
