Signals from Fundamental Analysis
While technical analysis studies what the market is doing, fundamental analysis asks a different question: why? Instead of focusing on price movements, it examines the underlying business to determine whether it is becoming stronger or weaker, and whether its current share price reflects its true value.
Unitree, a robot company, most investors have never heard of went public – and it could change how you think about the next decade
Recently, shares in a company called Unitree started trading in Shanghai. You’ve probably never heard of it. But there’s a decent chance you’ve seen its robots without knowing it. The ones doing backflips, running like sprinters, even throwing kung fu kicks in viral videos that rack up millions of views.
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.
Cheaper data is coming…These SA Telecoms stocks stand to benefit!

Signals from the Stock Market: Learning to Read What the Market Analysis Is Telling You
Every trading day, the stock market generates an enormous amount of information. Share prices move, companies release results, investors react to news, and market sentiment shifts. Individually, these events may seem random. Together, they create signals that can help investors better understand where opportunities and risks may be emerging. We’ve previously discussed the three pillars of investment analysis: technical, fundamental, and sentiment analysis. Each approaches the market from a different angle, and each provides its own set of signals that investors can use to make more informed decisions.
China’s latest AI model shakes up the market yet again!
Remember DeepSeek? The chinese model that matched OpenAI at a fraction of the cost and wiped $600 billion off Nvidia’s market cap in a single day. Well, it just happened again. At the World Artificial Intelligence Conference in Shanghai, a Beijing startup called Moonshot AI unveiled Kimi K3.
RSA Retail Bonds vs Fixed Deposits: Which one is best for you…
Walk into any conversation about safe income investing in South Africa and two names come up immediately: RSA Retail Bonds and fixed deposits. Both are widely regarded as safe. Both pay a fixed interest rate for a fixed term. Both are readily available to retail investors. Most people treat them as essentially interchangeable and pick whichever has the higher number on the day they invest.
That’s the wrong framework. Because once you look at what each product actually pays – after SARS takes its share, at different marginal tax rates, across different terms – the comparison produces results that most investors have never seen laid out clearly.
And there are specific investor profiles where the conventional choice is almost certainly costing money.
AI Agent: How to profit from the $58 Billion disruption!
You know what a chatbot does. You ask it something. It answers. You ask again. It answers again. The conversation is yours to drive and the AI is a passenger. Now, an AI agent is something entirely different.
Complexity VS Panic – Why the 2026 market will reward a different kind of thinking
In March 2020, the single best investment skill you could have had was courage. The market had collapsed. Everything was cheap. The only question was whether you could override the fear response long enough to buy. 2026 is different. The market isn’t in freefall. Most assets aren’t universally cheap. Nor are the opportunities obvious.
Why Do Companies Buy Back Shares?
Over the past two weeks, we’ve explored why companies list on the stock market and how they decide whether to reinvest profits or pay dividends. But dividends aren’t the only way companies can return value to shareholders. Increasingly, companies are choosing to buy back their own shares.
IBM just lost $68.8 billion in a single day! Here’s what it’s really telling you…

The company’s shares fell 25.21%, and in a single session, $68.8 billion of market value evaporated.
Before markets opened the following morning, the question in every investment conversation was the same: is this a buying opportunity or a warning sign?
What the JSE’s Two-Tier Reform means for small caps
In September 2024, the Financial Sector Conduct Authority approved a two-tier reform – the JSE’s split of its Main Board into two segments – Prime and General – with simplified Listings Requirements taking full effect in early 2026.
Why liquidity is the hidden tax on every small cap return…
Every investor knows what brokerage costs. It’s on the contract note, in rand and cents, impossible to miss. What almost no retail investor calculates, and what can dwarf that brokerage fee many times over, is liquidity cost. The price you actually pay to get into a small cap, and the price you actually receive to get out of one, when very few shares change hands on any given day.
