In the comp we get paid divies on LDT day and not when the actual payment gets paid or when the price goes ex divie. Lamak sold before ex divie day and scored that way. The Record Date for IPF was 15th and he sold on the 13th which was the LTD day. The payment date was 19th. This will never work in real life.

Two reflective mirrors were place on the moon during the moon landing and the distance from the earth to the moon can be accurately measured.

DIVTRX 60% for safety.
Rest in equal parts for alpha in the following:
ADI
PGR
CIL

I an betwixt and between whether Zuma should stay in or get kicked out. Should he stay in, he will stuff up the economy more and the ANC will loose credibility to it's voters.

Not the new CML. PGR is the next CML when markets wake up.
CIL is very cheap with a PE of ~8 odd and despite having stellar financial reports she kept diving for some reason. Now they are in the process of acquiring Conlog, her earnings will shoot upwards.
CIL's share price got diluted with the Rights Offer (issuing new shares at a discount to cover the R175m acquisition)

Not yet in the cross hairs of institutional investors but will shoot the lights out when they do.

This is why I don't want a car .... but then again, we have better public transport than SA. For a cost of 1€ I can travel by bus to any part of the city. Reliable and one every hour right in front of our apartment.
The international trains depart 3 times a day from the city center and the Portuguese inter city trains depart every 2 hours.
There is a bus dedicated for the international airport in Porto 65 km from here.

Not that I could drive on the wrong side of the road anyway. http://www.moneyweb.co.za/moneyweb-opinion/soapbox/better-to-own-a-car-or-to-simply-uber/?utm_source=Moneyweb&utm_campaign=90940fdc76-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_12_06&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b106a40770-90940fdc76-141299505

ZAR will probably not go lower than 13.5 for some time.

Thanks for all the kind words and encouragement. She had more tests done today and we will get the results the 1'st week of December.
Seems it may be MS or MD.

I have not posted here for some time but I have a reason for that. My wife is having medical issues and despite the rigorous tests done on the most sophisticated instruments available, they cannot find anything wrong.

She has trouble walking and gets dizzy. She has lost so much weight and has little control over her legs that are too weak.

I just tucked her into her bed and she started crying as she knows her time is limited. This broke me down. I love her so much.
We were supposed to go to the UK next month to see our first grandchild but I cannot see it happening.

So sad. I am a mans man and and only cry when my horse dies but this is my wife.
