Ghost Bites (Aspen | Capitec | City Lodge | Nampak | Pan African Resources | Trustco)
Capitec's excellent growth story continues. Pan African Resources made a fortune in 2025. Aspen's interims are predictably awful, but they are looking to the future. Nampak's business update is encouraging. City Lodge's growth was offset by currency moves. Trustco's Meya Mining raised debt for its diamond mining ambitions.

Ghost Bites (Powerfleet | Trellidor | Standard Bank)
Powerfleet is closer to achieving a net profit. Shock and horror: Standard Bank is not actually trying to acquire other banks. Trellidor's earnings have collapsed - will the turnaround ever come?

Ghost Stories #92: Balancing global portfolios with Europe and Japan ETFs
The team at Satrix has clearly been busy. They've launched two brand new ETFs to help South Africans tweak their exposure to offshore markets. If you're ready to learn more about Europe and Japan, then you're in the right place. And since most offshore portfolios in SA are really just a proxy for Big Tech, this is diversification that is worth paying attention to. Siyabulela Nomoyi joined me to explain.

Pick n Pay looks more like a basket case by the day, with losses increasing rather than improving. RMB Holdings announced an offer by the Atterbury consortium. Vukile Property Fund's local festive numbers look good. Other updates came in from Bidvest, DRDGOLD, Hyprop, Metair, Northam Platinum and Orion Minerals.

Ghost Bites (Gold Fields | Discovery – Growthpoint)
Gold Fields' HEPS more than doubled in 2025 as the gold sector continues to print cash. Discovery and Growthpoint have announced a deal for the Discovery head office - is it possible that they are both winners in the transaction?
Dominique Olivier
The money that makes the medallist
If you’ve ever watched an Olympic podium ceremony and thought, “Wow, must be nice,” you’re not alone. But the truth is far less glamorous than the gold glinting under those stadium lights. Behind every medal is a paper trail of budgets, grants, sponsorships and support staff invoices. Somewhere in a government office, there's a spreadsheet that makes the Minister of Sport choke on a coffee. Dominique Olivier explores the money that makes the medallist.
