Malawi raised its petrol price to 6,672 kwacha ($3.86) per liter, more than three times what US drivers are fretting over having to pay at the pump as oil surges due to the Iran war. That would be about $14.61 a gallon, the more common measure of fuel used in the US, where regular gasoline is about $4.08 a gallon, according to the American Automobile Association.

Malawi raised its petrol price to 6,672 kwacha ($3.86) per liter, more than three times what US drivers are fretting over having to pay at the pump as oil surges due to the Iran war. That would be about $14.61 a gallon, the more common measure of fuel used in the US, where regular gasoline is about $4.08 a gallon, according to the American Automobile Association. The southern African nation was already second in Globalpetrolprices.com’s ranking of the world’s most expensive gasoline before the latest adjustment by the regulator on Wednesday set prices 34% higher. The challenges Malawi already faced, that grow more acute with the effect of the Iran war on global markets, are shared across the region. The country has grappled with mounting debt and dollar shortages that strained fuel supplies and added to pressure on its local currency. The Malawi Energy Regulatory Authority, which has blamed skyrocketing fuel on a fixed pricing regime that resulted in trading losses and inadequate supplies, boosted the petrol price almost 42% in January. The regulator ruled out cutting some levies and taxes, according to local publication Nation Online. Malawi’s stabilization fund, used to soften price changes, is in debt and could take almost five years to clear, the paper reported a MERA official as saying. Many of the measures that grew problematic for Malawi are being utilized by other states on the continent to ease pump prices. South Africa and Namibia are cutting levies, while Mozambique has allowed the set fuel price to remain at a low level.
Sales of Tesla vehicles rose in the past three months in a possible sign recovery is afoot after a brutal year of boycotts over Elon Musk's politics but still fell short of expectations. The positive figure follows a year of plunging sales due to an aging lineup and boycotts over Musk's right-wing political stands.

Sales of Tesla vehicles rose in the past three months in a possible sign recovery is afoot after a brutal year of boycotts over Elon Musk's politics but still fell short of expectations. The positive figure follows a year of plunging sales due to an aging lineup and boycotts over Musk's right-wing political stands. The sales in the three months through March were 6% lower than the 381,000 that financial analysts had expected, according to a survey by researcher FactSet.

tadamichi/iStock via Getty Images I'm maintaining a " Hold" rating for Wolters Kluwer N.V. ( WOLTF ) ( WTKWY ) (WKL.AS). I have a favorable view of its portfolio restructuring initiatives. The company's sales, underpinned by extended-term agreements, are also protected in the short term. But its reduced shareholder returns were disappointing. I worry about the threat from a credible upstart in the healthcare space too. The previous November 6, 2025, write-up detailed WOLTF's solid 9M2025 topline metrics and the disruptive entry of "OpenEvidence/OE." Competitor Is Gaining Traction In early March, Wiley ( WLY ) revealed the integration of its "trusted scientific and medical content" including 400+ "journals and books" into OE. The Value Proposition Of WOLTF's 'UpToDate/UTD' Corporate Presentation I fear that the gap between OE and the other healthcare data players is gradually narrowing. Another rival, Elsevier's ClinicalKey, draws on information from more than 600 academic titles. OpenEvidence is catching up in terms of content depth thanks to the WLY deal. At its "Investor Teach-In" presentation (S&P Capital IQ transcript) on Dec 8, 2025, WOLTF highlighted UTD's focus on tracking "thousands of primary sources." This suggests to me that the access to a diverse range of peer-reviewed literature is a differentiating factor. Reuters reported in late January that OE "raised $250 million in fresh funding." In my opinion, that could help to fund future alliances with other journal providers such as Informa's ( IFPJF ) Taylor & Francis. My Nov '25 piece predicted that "WOLTF will find it tough to raise UTD's rates upon contract renewal" given OpenEvidence's "ad-supported model." This risk is materializing, considering the latter's growth momentum. Cash Distribution Plan Was A Letdown The stock's forward P/E has de-rated from a 52-week peak of 29.4x recorded in mid-2025 to 11.6x now. Its "Free Cash Flow/FCF" grew 10% to a substantial EUR1.35B last year. You would have antici...
