Nampak | Better moves

Management's strategic decisions overshadowed Nampak's (NPK) H1'18 better results from continuing operations. We believe management's recent decisions are positive for shareholder value. These strategic decisions include the glass division pending disposal and a firmer stand taken with Angolan customers. We believe the current share price compensates investors for above average risk.

SA Investment Strategy | Review of January 2020 for SA investors: Coronavirus weighs on the ZAR

From an SA asset-allocation perspective, SA Bonds (ALBI +1.2%) outperformed cash (STEFI +0.6%) and equities (Capped SWIX -2.6%) in Jan â€˜20.
