Stephen Grootes speaks to Sanisha Packirisamy, Momentum Investments’ Chief Economist, about the surprising uptick in April inflation to 4%, driven by sharp fuel price hikes, and what it means for consumers already under pressure, the outlook for interest rates, and whether easing food prices can offset rising transport and medical costs.
In other interviews, Balwin CEO Stephen Brookes talks about the R4.35-per-share buyout offer led by the PIC and existing shareholders, the rationale behind taking the group off the JSE, and what the deal signals about long-term confidence in South Africa’s residential property market.
