  • Tesco Shares Face Major Risk From War-Driven Food Inflation Ahead of April Results
    March 21, 2026, 4:01 AM EDT. Tesco shares have remained steady but face significant risk from rising food price inflation, driven by costs linked to the war in Iran and disruptions in key commodity supplies such as fertiliser and urea, which have surged 50%.

Past supply chain resilience offers cautious optimism.
