The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Hi Jim,

You mention the impact of currency on reported results, but you don't clearly state in which currency you are measuring to report a +19.3% return. I think it can be inferred that it is USD. Can you confirm?

I have not done my year-end report yet but measured in EUR, I think I am down 1%-2% so am probably up about 10% measured in USD. I normally go with the EUR result since that is my home currency.

Either way, you have nicely beaten me in 2025 so congratulations on a good result.

StevnFool.
