Read MoreThis past week has been eventful – not just globally – but here in SA too. Today, I’m going to share three events that involve the JSE, nuclear and gold that caught my eye and what they mean for you.

While the difference between a mid-cap and a large-cap can be huge, the difference between a small-cap and a large-cap can be incredible.
