They're quite good on Twitter if you need to get hold of them urgently.

Why does your nose "run" in English but in Afrikaans it "walks" (loop)?

Bin doing some interesting analysis in Excel on my Investor Challenge trades. Turns out that if I had used only R100 000 starting from 03 January I would've lost it all by the end of May. So I entered all the shares again using the R100 000 and just 2 simple moving averages which meant trading the shares on different dates but withing the January to May period and managed to turn the 102% loss into a 16.6% gain. So I thought, surely I can do better than that, so I added the ZAR/USD exchange rate which excluded 11 shares and turned the 16.6% into 89.1%. Tried different combinations of indicators, including the popular ones, and still ended up with a loss.

Edit: turned the 16.% into 58.3%

If you replace "W" with "T" in "What, Where and When", you get the answer to each of them.

Here's a curiosity which I have difficulty fathoming and I have just picked 2 fairly recent share listings

AYO came to market a little while back and has had a high of R 45.00 and is now trading at R 26.00
SYGNIA - also came to market not too long ago (I hold some of their shares) has had a high of R 14.73 over the last 12 months and is now languishing at R 9.50 - I bought at R 11.88 (all in) so have suffered a paper loss of 20%.

The question I am raising is that these companies come to market with somewhat high hopes/inflated ego's as to what the real worth of their businesses are really worth - surely advisors have some common sense to advise these companies that their expectations are too vaunted

Most companies with less than 70% exposure to the USD fell by 20%. Those above 70% grew positively. I don't recall that percentage. Read that on some news email today or was it Just One Lap?

In lockdown mode here due to high heat and humidity. But not too bad as the peeps in the apartments across the road are entertaining us in their underwear once again.  :TU:

Rules have changed slightly. Wonder what tax rate they use for the people who trade Sanlams system and how they are going to manage the tax aspects
