The Pineapple pigject came to a successful condusion during 2024 and whilst most of the

year ended 31 $1 Oecember 2024
The year began with the portfolio valued al £934.961 and having drawn down £108,000 of
capital in January 2024 It end8d at a value of £851.899. Al the time of Wr￿ng this report

At the start 01 2024. inflation had eased from the highs of 2022-23 across most major
economies, yet core inflation fftmained persistentiy atx]ve central bank targots-aro&ind 310

globally heading into mid-year.
Dèspite this, Central banks like the Fed and ECB hekl interest rates at elevaled levels for much
of the year. Markets, expectaiions of rae cuts got Pushed further Into the future - many
operators saw any easing unlikely before late 2024 or early 2025. As inflation softened
slightly, talk of 'soft landinqs" remained cautious aNd uneven dats.

Simultaneously. Israel's Conflict wrth Gaza, Hezbollah and spillover iensions disrupt￿ global

In the UK, LaboU￿8 landslide victory in Juty 2024 under Keir Stam)w, promised a shift toward
cbser EU allgnment and more Wrtical stabilty - an event broadly V•*lcomed by investors.
France and Germany also Saw politlcal turbula)¢e. wrth confidence votes ar#J fragmented

Equity markets rgmained volatile during the year and slower than expeded cuts in lending
rates led to waning optimism for further upward mt)vement. UK Gilts had a tough start but

over the 12 months from 4.4% to 4.0%. producing moderat• total retums in the second haK of
the year.
The totsl retum of Ihe Sl Mary's Trust portlolio in the year to 3111 D￿ernber 2024 was 6.48%.
This was reasonable given the matr0econom￿ and polrtKal srtuations affec*ng markets
lobaRy. Th wodd's wuty market perforrn8nce varied ccm8idwHWy from C£￿tinent lo
C￿ts￿£rrt. By way of example Europe was up 2.98% and US was up 27.2% on a to
rvlum basis. Ihhilst the US •quty mark* had been very strong as measured by the main
Indk¢s. thk% was misleading due to the ¢ominanc* of ￿eral laffJe cap companw in the

Post Ihe reporting equty markets have experiene4d a signfficant test in confidence at
the beginning of the s8cond quarter as Trump 8nnounced much larger than expected tsriffs
on many countries but in particular on China. Thls seems w have an oFening shot by
Trurnp as we enter the 310 quarter, rnarkets have become more confident as tarrff ratss
have been neg¢tiated downwards. There is now a whTff of optimism in the air, part1￿18r1Y as
ncwns of a possible recession in the US appear to have abated.
