Ghost Bites (Aveng | British American Tobacco | Gemfields | RMB Holdings | Schroder European Real Estate | Stor-Age | Trematon)
Stor-Age raised capital at a premium to NAV. Gemfields looks brighter. Aveng won't be selling McConnell Dowell for now at least. British American Tobacco unlocked over R7 billion in cash. RMB Holdings received an expression of interest from Atterbury. Reality has hit at Trematon. Schroder European Real Estate is a struggle.

Ghost Bites (Araxi | Fortress Real Estate | Octodec | Tiger Brands | Vukile Property Fund)
Tiger Brands is executing a stunning turnaround. Fortress, Octodec and Vukile delivered interesting property updates. Araxi is hoping that investors will focus on normalised numbers.

Ghost Bites (Bidcorp | Dipula Properties | Emira Property Fund | Gold Fields | Harmony Gold | PBT Holdings | Purple Group | RFG...
Bidcorp and Woolworths released encouraging numbers. Purple is charging up the J-curve. Gold Fields hosted a capital markets day, while Harmony Gold's numbers showed why they are lagging behind. Look out for Dipula and Emira in property, along with PBT Holdings, RFG Holdings, RMB Holdings and Stefanutti Stocks on a busy day of news.

Sasol's debt reduction and free cash flow got the market excited. Harmony didn't capitalise on gold price opportunities. Italtile posted resilient numbers, while Hulamin's performance was poor.

Ghost Bites (Gemfields | Merafe | MTN Zakhele Futhi | Novus | Primary Health Properties – Assura | Remgro – Mediclinic | Vunani)
Primary Health is making another desperate plea to Assura. MTN Zakhele Futhi is cashing in. Novus is up, but on shaky ground. Gemfields enjoyed decent support for the rights offer. Look out for Merafe, Mediclinic (Remgro) and Vunani as well.

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.
