Looks like 'long' because he is taking physical delivery of the shares; with 'short' he would be delivering ?

I hope so - I often can't get my head around some of these terms, even after googling them..... too stupid for this  :-[ :mad:
Did you see my question mark ? We are in the same boat - never worked with SSF's ...  :'(

yes, it seems like buyers are concerned about the investigation into SNH in Germany - people don't trust management any more, perhaps with good reason

what link are you using Moonraker?
Agreed, the investigation is holding the price back, plus DAX is down. However index tracker funds still need to include SNH which should lend good support.
Price should go to R90/R100 in 2 months or so.

Apparently there was a double downgrade from overweight to underweight, purely on valuation concerns. Still a great share and a Runt hedge.

Real time snapshot gif ..

Off topic, but that's so cool! How did you do that?
I don't know with Windows as I am on Linux.
With Linux I used a screen recorder to capture in ogv format, named to out.ogv ..

First install this:
sudo apt-get install imagemagick mplayer gtk-recordmydesktop

That's the required stuff, ImageMagick, MPlayer and Desktop Recorder. Then use Desktop Recorder to capture a portion of the screen/application to use as the screencast. After the Desktop Recorder has saved the recording into an OGV video, MPlayer will be used to capture JPEG screenshots, saving them into the 'output' directory.

In terminal:
mplayer -ao null out.ogv -vo jpeg:outdir=output

Use ImageMagick to convert the screenshots into an animated gifs.
convert output/* output.gif

You can optimize the screenshots this way:
convert output.gif -fuzz 10% -layers Optimize optimised.gif

another way to optimize gif is to use gifsicle: gifsicle -O in.gif -o out.gif I just tried and got 100x reduction in file size.

(If you are using Ubuntu, Byzanz will do the job for you - but you need to install from a ppa as not in the repos.).

Thanks. Even though me TEX position has taken a HUGE knock over the last month I have no intention of selling. Who is Wayne McCurrie by the way?

He is from Momentum Wealth Portfolio Management and features regularly on Business Day TV's Stock Watch.

@Fawkes85

Applies to US in particular but would also apply to Germany/UK.

The idea that rising interest rates are always bad for REITs may need another look.

Something that Wayne McCurrie doesn't seem to understand.

Fitch cut South Africa’s sovereign credit rating by one notch to BBB- It assigned a stable outlook to the rating.
