Ghost Wrap #54 (NEPI Rockcastle | MultiChoice | Santam | Shoprite vs. Woolworths | Richemont)

Welcome to Ghost Wrap, your regular update on the most interesting company news in the South African market.

In this episode of Ghost Wrap, I recapped five important stories on the local market:

• NEPI Rockcastle is seen as one of the better REITs on the local market and a recent update shows why.
• MultiChoice is in for a long journey with Showmax, at a time when the rest of the business is facing substantial other challenges.
• Santam is focused on repricing risk, which means upward pressure on short-term insurance premiums across the industry.
• Shoprite is doing an exceptional job of growing volumes, with further market share gains that look especially impressive when compared to a competitor like Woolworths.
• Richemont saw sales drop in the Americas region and margins are under pressure across the board, so is the online side of the business proving to be a distraction?
