How to read this book. NAV is the current hypothetical value of the model book. Contributed capital is money the Ghost added. Market P&L is the gain or loss from price moves, income and marks. Return excludes new deposits, so the book can't flatter itself by simply adding capital; and it's money-weighted, so it accounts for when capital went in.

Read: Equities carried the change in value; fixed income accrued gradually while commodities and cash remained close to inception.

What each sleeve is doing
Equities
53.3%
Carrying the return; but with DSE liquidity and concentration risk (banks dominate).
Fixed income
32.9%
Stabilising the book and setting the hurdle rate equities must beat.
Commodities
3.8%
A small gold hedge, held for protection; not a return engine.
Cash
10.0%
Optionality and patience; dry powder for a decision worth making.

A diaspora lens · USD-equivalent
USD-equivalents are indicative, at the latest BoT USD/TZS mark. A TSh gain and a hard-currency return can differ; the shilling is part of the real-return picture.
Risk note. The Book is marked for education, not execution. DSE liquidity can be thin, and a visible mark may not be the price available for a real trade. Bank concentration can dominate returns; fixed-income and commodity marks may be modelled or carried differently from listed equities. Hypothetical results don't include taxes, fees, spreads, custody costs or execution frictions unless explicitly stated.
The book's rules
  • Contributions are separated from performance; a deposit is never a gain.
  • Every move is written down, in public, so the book never contradicts itself.
  • Allocation bands govern sleeve drift; a breach needs a dated rationale.
  • Marks carry the source and date shown on each section; thin liquidity is disclosed, not hidden.
  • No advice, no price targets, no recommendations; and a non-decision is a valid decision.
