Someone from Cell C keeps scraping my website, is someone trying to do an offline dump of all the information?

Which parts of the site? Maybe trying to get hold of your share prices and use it as a feed.

It was the forum, not the challenge site. I can only imagine it's to do with spam, or using the information to build up another site. I blocked the IP yesterday, but it came back as a different cell c IP today. I'll turn on cloudflare this weekend.

If it scares you, it's a sign you need to do it

Hi all, we're running through cloudflare (a firewall type thing) now. Please let me know if you see anything strange. You might get asked to prove you're not a robot every now and then...

Talking about STXIND, what's your opinion on buy, sell hold? I've been buying for the last few years but not sure if I should continue

The moment it hits 7000 I'm selling Naspes INDI. That's my opinion.

I sold out at R70.52. I just wasn't comfortable with the lack of diversification. If I remember right, over half my eggs were in 3 baskets.

I stopped my debit order 2 months ago, will hold for a while and see where it goes. Will CSP500 on EasyEquities be a good alternative you think?

CSP500 is not an alternative to STXIND unless you use growth as your only criterion. DBXUS and DBXWD are the real CSP500 alternatives.

If you wanted to keep it "local" as with STXIND then NFEMOM is something to look at but a very different ETF. The only real alternative for the industrial index is GIVIND: http://etfcib.absa.co.za/products/Exchange%20Traded%20Funds/equity/GIVI%20SA%20Industrial%2025%20ETF/Pages/default.aspx
