The whole JSE seems to be dropping.  Any chance for a turnaround?

Patrick - how is your system going to handle the Woolworths nil paid letters, can we take up to, what we have as a balance in our accouts?

I haven't followed woolworths, so I'll need a brief description and also some recommendations.

If you look at the WHL sens it spells out the deal, but, in essence shareholders have been allocated NPL which had to be taken up last Friday or the letters lapsed. I hold WHL in my private portfolio and have taken up my shares as they are priced at a discount to current trading prices (Price is R 60 and some change per share) so once they list these shares they will ranks with the current ordinary shares. One can expect the price of WHL to drop a bit as there will be more shares in circulation but I think it is already in the price as they are trading at about R 71.00

Great, I'll find the sens. Generally with rights issues, we force all holders to take them here, even if it puts their cash into a negative. I think the same should be done in this situation.

Agree that they should be taken up

Personally I would sit on the side lines for the next few days to a week and then buy on dips - if you have spare cash. Sometime in mid October our new finance minister is going to tell us how bad the financial system is in RSA and how much the state has borrowed and also how it is going to avoid a sovereign downgrade - this unfortunately will happen and the Rand will weaken once again - why we may even see R 11.75 to R 12.00 to the dollar
