Policy-driven sectors are not automatically safe

• Historical highs
• “Value play” narratives

• Debt service capacity
• Working capital reconciliation
• Auditor quality
• Board stability

• Debt restructuring stabilizes facilities
• Wilmar remains strategically invested

But that is conditional.
And conditional plays are not defensive holdings.
They are volatility trades.
