How to compare two Structured Products to determine which one is the better investment?
I recently received an excellent review of two Structured Products done by Finova Capital. They understand the complex details and compare the solutions to determine which is better for you. Two products in focus this month were the Discovery Capital 200+ (closing 10 September) and the Momentum Digital Structured Note (closing 18 September). They may look like close cousins. They aren’t.
The Most Dangerous Words in Investing: “This Time Is Different”
Markets have a funny way of making old investing mistakes feel completely new. A new technology arrives, prices surge, investors pile in and suddenly the usual rules no longer seem to apply.
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. A shrinking manufacturing sector has meant fewer quality industrial businesses coming to market, weaker earnings growth across large parts of the JSE and fewer opportunities to invest in companies benefiting from a growing economy.

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.

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.
