I keep my Buy active for next week because I believe this will jump higher by 03.03.2025 Monday as Trump tariffs come into active on 01.03.2025 Saturday.
17.90
$20 by June doesn't feel all that unlikely.
surprised ZAR is more than holding up. some tariffs definitely coming South Africa's way next week.
Bodacious 1.ok, but trump is not imposing tariffs on services 2. irrelevant, and you digress but for your argument sake US no a)13th school education b) no.1 tertiary/ post grad which matters more for services c) even more important, education in US is less relevant as attracts human capital from all over the world. I am south african came over to yale and now work here. musk is another example who didn't go through their school education system. but you digresssl
here are some more. Sergey Brin … Nationality: American, Soviet George Soros … Nationality: American, Hungarian Pierre Omidyar … Nationality: American, Iranian Jan Koum … Nationality: American, Ukrainian Jorge Perez … Nationality: American Patrick Soon-Shiong … Nationality: American, South African Shahid Khan … Nationality: American, Pakistani Bharat Desai … Nationality: American, Indian Do Won and Jin Sook Chang Eren Ozmen … Nationality: American Kavitark Ram Shriram … Nationality: American, Indian
What I said was S.A. in response could simply tariff the service industry given the US runs a trade surplus in services with S.A. My point being anyone can tariff another. For example S.A. is not allowed to manufacture it's own vehicle brands it can only assemble western vehicle brands because of unfair trade practices been in place for decades. So imposing steel tariffs for example is in fact tariffing companies in S.A. such as Smoltz and Bickenbach which are in fact European companies. So tariffing S.A. on steel which comes from Germany and imposing taxes on exports e.g. vehicles assembled in S.A. under unfair trade practices is hardly an honest practice.
Dollar is going to weaken further against the Rand this month
New hurt for ZAR is loading for this February.This Monday will play the Blues
This pair is so unrealistic that they need to start up loadshedding this past Friday.. .hahahaha
why is rand today so strong ?
Because the dollar is worth nonsense and the the rand can't pretend anymore to be worth less
Ah yes also the US Fed held rates flat whilst the no good rand cut rates further...lmfao
The 29 January at 21:00pm South Africa time is the US Federal Decision Rate.
I cancel the ZAR and EUR both in lost. The other is doing good
Time for me to buy scary ZAR. I already Selling SP500, BTC/USD, EUR/USD and Buy VIX. Stock mark going to be in red zone when it opens later today
This was a pleaseant surprise drop to see
On Monday Trump is back in the White House and I believe it will rally up again
An industrial reneisance works with a weak dollar not a strong one.
Scalp day for pennies and quarters
A weak CPI is a weak Dollar and a strong CPI is a strong Dollar.
In 2h 30m US CPI comes into play
it may hit 20 mark in few weeks time but in my opinion it will float between 18.92 to 19.80 until something happens drastically in South Africa economy
The average house price in S.A. is 1.4 million and the average wage is 28k which as a couple would amount to 56k per month. Also the average household size in S.A. is 3.4 people. The monthly repayment is 14 584 on the 1.4 mortgage.
Bodacious how many South Africans receiving R28k each month. How any receive R16k each month and we can go from R10k, R8k, R6k, R4k, R2,800 R350 each month out of the 63 millions people in South Africa. That small group of R28k is not even close to 40%. Out of the 7.7million what pay taxes is only 43% what receives the promising R28k per month.
Plenty people earn 28k ...to be in the top 1% you would need 160k a month. or net wealth of 4.4 million. There are 350k high income individuals in S.A. Most of the people I know earn between 40~60k per month. My gardener from Malawi he earns 5k per month
wow , dollar is fraud
Stock market looks it will start in the negative possession what will push ZAR up.

Reminder that it is Nonfarm payroll in 2 hours time.
It will probably miss because they cant keep lying like they have been about how great jobs have been under the Biden Admin.
Stock market is close today and will only resume tomorrow again at normal time. It is a uneventful day.
