Newsletter – March 2026 – Issue 164

Trump is really rocking the boat in all ways and knee jerk reactions in the markets are proof of that (see attached pics of market graphs) that being said, the NASDAQ is only down -5.55% YTD, S&P500 Down -4.05%, JSE Down -6,77%, Gold fell from $5500 to $4400, Rand from R19 to the Dollar to R15.85 now back to just over R17.00. Once again if you are in good shares / funds, they will get through this and make money again (see attached “we have been there before”).

It’s just before Easter so I wish all of you a Happy Easter. Remember and do not forget that we are celebrating the death and resurrection of Jesus.

If you are travelling, please be safe. We are off to England to see children and grand children and praying that our flights will all work.
