It’s NOT the petrol price you should be worried about… It’s diesel!
From Wednesday 2 September 2026, something took effect that will work its way through the South African economy for months. The wholesale price of the premium grade of diesel rose over 11% – pushing the inland wholesale price back above R30 a litre in Gauteng for the first time since May.

The Dividend Trap that’s about to catch a lot of South African investors off guard
I want to tell you about a mistake I’m watching a lot of income investors make right now, without even realising it. For years, the playbook was simple. Find a stock with a fat dividend yield, buy it, collect the cheque, repeat. Easy money, especially while interest rates kept falling and every income-hungry investor was chasing the same handful of high-yielding names.
Technical Analysis Signals: What is the Market Telling You?
Every day, millions of buyers and sellers interact in the financial markets. Every transaction contributes to one thing: price.

“Demand Destruction” vs “Demand Deferral”: Why it matters more in small caps than anywhere else

Special Economic Zone (SEZ): The quiet policy shift that could create South Africa’s next industrial boom
South Africa hasn’t just been losing factories. It’s been losing the industries that create skilled jobs, exports and long-term economic growth. For investors, that’s mattered too.

Signals from the Stock Market: Learning to Read What the Market Analysis Is Telling You
