Market update

27 May 2026

Trumps War is taking its toll om many more than we could ever Imagin.

The focus point and the most important point for Pres Trump is the Strate of Hormuz.

The most troubling fact is the blockage of ship traffic to the rest of the waiting world.
We get our fertilizer, crude oil, maize and many other commodities through that canal.
The problem might not be as real now but the months ahead will need serious footwork for us to minimize our losses in growing food. Exporting our goods to Europe and the rest of the developed world is under pressure too.

Our investments kept on giving astonishing returns. We received 22% per annul in January. Those returns are down to 16% per annum in April. This while the ALSI dropped from 128000 to 115000 points.

Let us hope and pray that the solutions come quickly and the eventual outcome will be bearable.
