What's scary is that even in Rand terms, our market was significantly better off 10 years ago than it is today. I would hate to see a $ based comparison.

although its based on profit - not sure if that alone is a good enough measure,

but the Naspers market cap blew everything else out of the water in 10 years. And that is pure investor valuation of the company....

wonder if it will every adjust to a normal PE ratio?
