Newsletter – April 2025 – Issue 153

Markets have bounced up and down like a child on a sugar high. Trumps tariff circus is affecting the whole world, but it looks like the markets have now settled down.
Some food for thought.
1) Don’t buy gold now. It’s too late and too expensive.
2) Continue moving money offshore. You are doing this for safety, returns and diversification. See attached Smartie Box and Foreign Investments have outperformed all asset classes over 5,10 and 15 years.
3) Don’t panic, we have been here before. Markets always settle down and start growing again.
4) If you have any cash, now is the time to buy.
5) This market correction is small compared to 2010,2018 and Covid.
6) All our clients are in good shares/funds, which will always come back and make money.
I am off to the lodge for Easter, but my phone and laptop are with me if anyone needs to contact me.
I trust that you will have an awesome Easter with friends and family. Travel safe and enjoy.
