Taking stock

2011-05-05 00:00

The current cyclical revival in both South Africa’s economy and share prices is largely the result of the generous salary increases and the favourable relaxed climate surrounding monetary policy and, therefore, interest rates, JPMorgan says in its latest report to SA’s asset managers.

Engineer your own earnings

2010-05-06 00:00

INVESTORS WHO HAVE followed in the investment footsteps of retail and investment legend Christo Wiese have reaped handsome rewards over the years. Wiese's track record - from Pepkor to Shoprite and many things in between - is littered with an impressive history of profitability. It therefore makes perfect sense to closely watch Wiese's share dealings. His recent trading activity in engineering goods company Invicta - a company of which he's chairman and major shareholder - suggests Wiese has som

Picking low-hanging fruit

2011-04-21 00:00

The intrinsic value of agribusiness investor Zeder Investments has grown to a better-than-expected 314c/share, which means the share is still discounting its underlying portfolio value by 20%. Finweek, unlike the mainstream media (which concentrates on the sum-of-the-parts value) prefers to apply the intrinsic value as the appropriate measure for Zeder’s performance.

Koop dié grondverskuiwer

2010-05-06 00:00

Beleggers wat die spoor van Christo Wiese, legende in die kleinhandel- en beleggingswêreld, gevolg het, het deur die jare die vrugte daarvan gepluk. Wiese se geskiedenis, vanaf Pepkor tot Shoprite en vele ander tussenin, getuig van indrukwekkende winsgewendheid. (Hy het egter klaarblyklik die spoor byster geraak toe hy hom by Shoprite in 'n nulkoste-opsie met beperkte speling met 'n plafon van R87 per aandeel op 2 miljoen van sy 82 miljoen aandele tot Februarie 2013 vasgesluit het (Finweek 29 Ap

2010-04-23 06:00

THE RECENT SHARP INCREASE in Shoprite's share price, already more than 20% this year, is starting to hit chairman Christo Wiese, who is also its largest shareholder. In the Finweek issue of 12 November last year, we pointed out Wiese had in fact entered a remarkable motion of no-confidence in himself and Shoprite. In a huge transaction - called a zero cost collar - he gave third parties the option of buying as many as 7,5m of his Shoprite shares at prices between R81 and R87 from August 2012 to
