Samuel Pelaez, the Company's President, CEO, CIO, and Director stated: "The September Fed interest rate decision created volatility, yet the U.S. dollar was almost unchanged. Most commodities rose, with equities outperforming their commodity references. Gold rose to fresh all-time highs, with equities outperforming by a large margin for a second consecutive month. Copper prices also rose on supply restrictions, leading copper miners to rally aggressively. Recent moves in these sectors suggest generalist money flows into the sector are accelerating. Despite this strong performance in September, seasonality in the Fall period is typically weak for the commodities sector. At Olive we are currently investing more cautiously."

Derek Macpherson, the Company's Executive Chairman stated: "Olive continues to deliver strong investment performance, with our investments up 39% in the month of September alone and now up 121% year-to-date. We have spent the last 4 years, reshaping Olive into an investment vehicle that is designed to thrive in a bull market and now that the bull market has arrived, we are delivering exceptional investment performance which has resulted in Olive's share price being up 220% year-to-date."
