Prices and market capitalisation use the last verified DSE close. The baseline is the last retained close on or before the same date one year earlier. This is an unadjusted price-only change, not total shareholder return. Sector lanes are categories; offsets only reduce collisions. Bubble area shows verified market capitalisation. Only counters with positive session turnover and a usable baseline are plotted; all exclusions remain in the table.

Visual summary

Book, benchmarks and what moved it

The Ghost's hypothetical TZS 500m model book is +8.16% since inception at its 4 Aug mark. Balanced breadth, concentrated turnover, split rate signals and small two-way FX moves update the risk map — not trades.

The bridge reconciles to TZS 40.7m. Savings are capital and never counted as performance.

Tape read: The hypothetical model book ended 4 August at +8.16% since inception. Balanced breadth sits beside concentrated equity turnover, while the interbank-to-bill gap and two-way FX changes keep funding and currency conditions visible. These are educational terrain observations, never positions or recommendations.
