He's going long as he thinks the share price will rise. May have something to do with the Amsterdam court outcome towards the end of this month. If the court ruling is what we are hoping for, we can surely assume a decent price increase. 

thanks Moonraker! 

I was hoping it was something like that - about time that SNH picks up again - it's quite a large % of my portfolio and has been pulling me down for a while now 

Just take note, he bought futures not stock. 

In noob language, he's trading not investing.

In plain language, he expects a spike up (he went long) - but he will dump them very quickly when whatever he knows/expects becomes public.

Quick in and out, not long term.

Because he chooses futures, I'm pretty convinced he is very sure of his move.

I see signals of insider trading - its about time the authorities responsible stopped directors trading in their shares as opposed to investing. Years back Acc Ross and Venter Trailers directors did a lot of this type of manoeuvring

JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - Steinhoff International's Johannesburg-listed shares fell to a 10-week low after Reuters reported the company did not tell investors about almost $1 billion in transactions with a related company despite laws that some experts believe require it to do so.
Shares in the furniture retailer dropped to 56 rand in early trading, but recovered to 59.46 rand by 1113 GMT, around 3.9 percent weaker than its closing price on Tuesday.

Steinhoff´s GT Branding Holding Investor Information correct and in line with IFRS Requirements

Stellenbosch, November 8, 2017 – In response to a Reuters release from today, November 8, 2017,
STEINHOFF INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS N.V. ("Steinhoff" or the “Company”) clarifies again that
Steinhoff´s reporting and investor information regarding all transactions between Steinhoff and GT
Global Branding are in line with all IFRS (International Reporting Standard) requirements including
internal accounting rules and the Prospectus Directive.

Markus Jooste, CEO of Steinhoff International: “All reporting requirements have been met. This has
been confirmed by our internal legal team and external experts.”

Steinhoff co-invested as a minority shareholder in GT Branding Holding in 2015 to enable the company
to continue to invest, develop and strengthen the manufacturing furniture brands on a world-wide
basis. This decision further based on the economic return to be derived from this investment (in
establishing and owning relevant brands worthy of earning royalties from a host of customers in
future).

In the Steinhoff annual accounts from September 30, 2016, GT Branding Holding forms part of
Steinhoff´s associate investments. The equity in the company (together with the preference share
amounting to Euro 384 mio) is shown in investment in and loans to associated companies. The funding
supplied to GT Branding Holding is shown under short term loans and amounted to
Euro 339 mio. Loans bear interest at market related interest rates. In terms of IAS 24 the net amount
for the 2016 September financial year amounted to zero and therefore no disclosure was made as the
related party transaction was zero.
