Ghost Bites (Assura – Primary Health Properties | MultiChoice | Naspers – Prosus | Pan African Resources)
Pan African Resources and Naspers/Prosus have both been winners for me this year, with latest numbers showing why. MultiChoice is in much pain. Assura is going ahead with the KKR/Stonepeak offer, not the Primary Health Properties merger.

Ghost Bites (CMH | Invicta | Ninety One | SPAR)
SPAR's numbers tell a tough story, but there's hope. Invicta has flagged strong earnings. Ninety One enjoyed a much better second half. CMH finally has a succession plan.

Ghost Bites (Blue Label | Collins Property Group | Finbond | MAS | Nampak | NEPI Rockcastle | Newpark | Nutun | Pepkor |...
Richemont released numbers, as did Pepkor at the other end of the retail spectrum.. Blue Label could list Cell C separately. Collins Property Group, MAS, NEPI Rockcastle and Newpark all had property sector news, in addition to Primary Health upping its play for Assura. Look out for Finbond, Nampak, Nutun and Tiger Brands as well.

GHOST BITES (4Sight | Alphamin | Assura | Dipula Properties | enX | Europa Metals)
4Sight has done a clever B-BBEE deal. Dipula Properties achieved modest growth. enX misses loadshedding. Alphamin's detailed Q1 financials are available. Europa Metals looks set to be wound up.

GHOST BITES (AngloGold | Barloworld | Collins Property Group | Mantengu Mining | Montauk Renewables | Newpark REIT | Old Mutual | Raubex |...
AngloGold's profits are much higher and Sibanye is smiling as well. The offer for Barloworld needs more acceptances. Mantengu Mining has gone nuclear on share manipulation allegations. Raubex is the subject of whistleblower allegations. There's property news from Collins and Newpark. Old Mutual has announced their new CEO.

GHOST BITES (Choppies | Investec | Momentum | Shaftesbury | South Ocean Holdings)
Investec's UK business dragged down the group numbers. Shaftesbury is selling part of its Covent Garden stake. Momentum had an exceptional period. Choppies is doing well and South Ocean Holdings certainly isn't.

GHOST BITES (Absa – Standard Bank | Hulamin | MTN | RFG Holdings | Thungela)
There's a new sheriff in town at Absa - and it's Standard Bank's loss! MTN's gap between constant currency and reported earnings is still huge. RFG had trouble with pineapples. Hulamin had a poor year. Thungela released its 2024 results.
