Old Mutual has some bright spots, but is still a sideways story overall. Jubilee Metals is successfully through its maintenance shutdown. Wesizwe Platinum's Bakubung Minerals will shed nearly 500 jobs.

Ghost Bites (Bidcorp | British American Tobacco | Burstone | Invicta | Momentum | Santova | Telkom)
Telkom is brimming with confidence, while Bidcorp and British American Tobacco are executing on their global business strategies. Invicta had a flat period, with Burstone also not giving investors much to get excited about. Santova is a good business in a tough environment. Momentum's capital markets day makes for good reading.

Ghost Bites (Copper 360 | Merafe | Momentum | Pan African Resources | Sirius Real Estate | Tiger Brands)
Tiger Brands put in an exceptional margin performance. Sirius Real Estate had a busy period of deals. Pan African Resources had a record year of cash flow, but the market hated the guidance. Momentum is still living up to its name. NERSA has thrown Merafe a lifeline. Copper 360 finds no love in the market.

Ghost Bites (African Media Entertainment | Aspen | Delta Property Fund | Dis-Chem | Nampak | Remgro | SPAR)
SPAR is now a catastrophe. Dis-Chem's valuation makes it a sitting duck. Mediclinic is enjoying the benefit of operating leverage. Nampak was dragged down by one local segment. Aspen is considering share buybacks. African Media Entertainment is growing in a tough market. Delta Property Fund is making progress.

Ghost Bites (4Sight | Emira Property Fund | ISA Holdings | Reinet | Sygnia | Telkom)
In the tech sector, 4Sight and ISA Holdings waved the flag for the small caps. Sygnia had an excellent period and Telkom shareholders are also celebrating. Reinet is the definition of a fortress balance sheet. It's a slow and steady story at Emira Property Fund.

Ghost Bites (Coronation | Datatec | eMedia | Frontier Transport | HCI | Pepkor | Santova | Stefanutti Stocks | Tsogo Sun | Zeda)
On another ultra busy day of earnings, we saw a positive update from HCI despite pressure in other names in the stable (eMedia / Frontier Transport / Tsogo Sun). Pepkor is my pick in the clothing sector and Zeda is working out well for me. Coronation, Datatec, Santova and Stefanutti Stocks all joined the fray.
