Whatever comes out of the defence review, there is no expectation that troop numbers will increase in the near future.

Raised by her mother after losing her father as a baby, she never completed high school because of financial hardship.But, through wrestling, the 20-year-old has found discipline, purpose and renewed hope.

"Before SGW, I had anger issues. I was arrogant," she told BBC Sport Africa."Wrestling helped me control my anger. Now it's my entire life. It has changed me mentally and physically."Bumba, nicknamed Bumbash, is a lifelong wrestling enthusiast who grew up mimicking WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) commentators.

"My mum used to beat me for loving professional wrestling," Bumbash, 37, said."But I was so passionate about it I started imitating the commentators, and eventually I was translating WWE matches into Luganda for local TV."

By 2023, Bumbash realised there was a hungry audience for the sport but no local infrastructure. So he took a bold step, training youngsters and building his own version from scratch.

When he shared their first muddy matches online, the response was immediate. Professionals from WWE and AEW (All Elite Wrestling) even reached out to offer their support.Russ Mould believes there will, at the very least, be a lull in the upwards trend. "Given that it has had such a stunning run, it would be logical to expect it to have a pause for breath at some stage," he says.

But he believes that if there is a sharp economic slowdown and interest rates are slashed, the gold price could go higher in the long run.One problem for investors is working out whether the recent record price for gold was simply a staging point in a continued upward climb – to more than $4,000 for example – or the peak.

Simon French at Panmure Liberum believes the peak may now be very close, and people piling into the market now in the hope of making big money are likely to be disappointed. Others have warned that those recently lured into buying gold by hype and headlines could lose out if the market goes into reverse."Short-term speculating can backfire, even though there will be a temptation to hang on to the coat-tails of the record run upwards," is how Susannah Streeter, head of money and markets at Hargreaves Lansdown, has put it.
