JSE | In need of a catalyst

The JSE released a disappointing trading statement guiding to a 20% to 26% decline in HEPS in FY '19. R43m in once-off costs will affect the results. Despite improved trading activity in H2 '19, we estimate a 1.3% decline in revenue. We expect an improvement in earnings growth in FY '20 as earnings recover off a low base. However, a normalisation in trading activity is required for the JSE to deliver double-digit earnings growth over the next three years. We believe the JSE is defensive relative to other financial shares.
