Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE): Resources are KING I am very excited that the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) has been added to the TradingView data sources. This gives South African investors an opportunity to use the flexibility and ease of TV. As my first post I would like to highlight the performance of the Resources Sector. The South African economy was built on resources and has been under performing since 2008 (see chart below). But since 2016 this has changed and Resources are out performing the other sectors. The other sectors have also shown an upturn in August and with the Rand (ZAR) weakening on the back of emerging market jitters this could be a great Sector to find trades.

Unum Reseach: JSE Top 40 Index This mornings flash note from our Trading Desk Analyst, Lester David s: "We've "gapped" higher on today's open, breaching the downward trend line from the all time highs at 55192 (week of 20-Nov-2018) What I'm looking at is the weekly setup. We currently trade at the highest level since Jan 2018. If we take it back to June 2017, that could potentially be a bullish flag in the making."

JSE Major Sectors Resources 10 +0.98% Industrial 25 +1.41% Financial 15 +0.52% Join the Unum Trading Desk on Friday 7 Sep 2018 starting at 14:15 as we look to trade the EURUSD Forex pair on the NFP data. t.me In currencies, the South African Rand trades as follows: USDZAR +0.04% to 14.26 GBPZAR +0.09% to 18.33 EURZAR +0.10% to 16.58 Gold trades at $1212 Platinum at $791 Brent Crude Oil at $76.09 International Markets This morning, Asian equities are as follows: Nikkei 225 (+0.85%) Hang Seng (+2.17%) Shanghai Composite (+1.43%) Latam Markets closed as follows: Merval 25 (-5.11%) Bovespa (+0.83%) INMEX (-0.22%) Company News MMI Holdings - Trading statement for the year ended 30 June 2018 Shareholders are reminded that MMI executive management has introduced a number of recent changes to the organisation in order to focus on the practical implementation of our strategy. We have reset the business to provide a strong foundation for improved performance and future growth. We are confident that these changes will create value for shareholders in due course. Shareholders are advised that the diluted core headline earnings per share, the group's main earnings measure to monitor the operational performance of the group, is expected to decrease by between 5 and 15 percent relative to the previous year. The diluted core headline earnings expectation equates to a range from 170cps to 190cps for F2018, compared to 200cps in F2017. Diluted core headline earnings has been negatively affected during the period by various factors including increased investment in client engagement activities, higher expenditure in technology, and weaker persistency in Metropolitan Retail. Also, MMI’s share of losses increased, in line with business plans, on new initiatives such as the India joint venture. Momentum Corporate profits have improved with group underwriting results showing an improvement year-on- year, whilst good expense management also contributed to their improved result. Strong mortality and morbidity profits across the group boosted core earnings. Shareholders are further advised that the group's basic earnings per share is expected to decrease by between 5 and 15 percent (to between 84cps and 94cps) relative to 98cps earned in the comparative period. Headline earnings per share is expected to show a decrease of between 15 and 25 percent (to between 89cps and 101cps) relative to 118cps for the comparative period. Basic and headline earnings have both been negatively affected by significant basis changes in Momentum Retail and Metropolitan Retail and the weak investment markets of F2017 resulting in a lower starting asset base for the current year. Basic earnings decreased by less than headline earnings mainly due to a reduction in the impairment of intangibles compared to F2017. Note that MMI excludes fair value gains, impairment of intangibles, movement in value of MMI shares held in policyholder funds, investment variances and non-recurring items from core headline earnings whereas basic earnings include all these items. MMI will be releasing final results for the year ended 30 June 2018 on 5 September 2018. The forecast financial information contained in this trading statement to shareholders is based on information available at the time of publication and has not been reviewed and reported on by the Company’s auditors.

Unum Market Commentary: Global Equities Remain Bid, Dollar fades Rumblings throughout the financial markets continued on Tuesday around US Donald Trump being concerned about the Federal Reserve raising interest rates. As you may well know, higher rates in the US means a stronger US Dollar but could also spell trouble for equity markets which for nearly a decade have relied on low interest rates to borrow cheaply and fuel growth. This dollar weakness saw the Rand gain on the day, testing a one-week low of R14.27. Also on the day the All Share Index was marginally higher by 0.07% while the Top 40 added 24 points to close the session 0.05% higher.

Mike shares IPL: FY results out today, HEPS came in the middle of guidance. Dividend up, coming in at R7.10 so overall decent. Proposed unbundling has been approved by the board and will be concluded in Q4 2018.Share price is up 1.67% to R201.50 and think medium term is a buy opportunity. Will also benefit from any strength in the ZAR. BHP Billiton: Results came out this morning, missed slightly on estimates, but announced record dividend payout of $0.63 per share, amounts to R9 at current USDZAR FX rate. Reiterated that the proceeds of the IS shale assets will be returned to shareholders once the sale has been completed. Sale was $10.8 bil, don’t think the tax will be much ( est 0.1mil ) so most of it will be returned. The sale will be completed by the end of OCT 2018, and will say how they will return it, either via share buyback or cash payment ( dividend ), I think the market will prefer the latter. Was down around 3% this morning and recovered almost half of this back. Expensive at current levels, but still think you can buy any weakness here. Obviously the GBPZAR has moved quite a bit that needs to be factored in. Target of 18pounds still comes to mind. Shoprite: Urggh, what a disappointment, usually my preferred retailer, but trading statement was a massive disappointment, and results today came in at the lower end of the trading statement guidance. Currently down 6.5% at R198, and will need to review this one. Maybe some bottom pickers out there? Above is the most important company results out today, so what else are we looking at in the market? Few shares is Last Day to trade today: L2D,MIX,MND,MNP,QLT,TWR ( anyone notice how close MND came to touching R400 yesterday? Is it time to to take some off the table? ) Did anyone buy the dip on NPN? If not, shame on you, gave you a nice opportunity I think. Yeah sure Tencent slowed down for the first time in 5 years ( or something like that ), but still a massive powerhouse in my opinion. Some downgrades coming I think, but still way below most target levels. Rhamaphoria rally is gone. So where to from now? Well stick to the names of IPL,BVT? Retailers still a sell on any strength think. Names like TRU,CLS comes to mind? Are we seeing a bit of short covering going on in BID? Keeping an eye on this one for possible short BAW, just buy it :-) ( We did, REMEMBER THIS IS JUST AN OPINION AND NOT ADVICE ) BLU: Getting killed once again on the back of Cell C results. Haven’t read it yet, heard something about a rights issue coming up? Rand is stronger today, every day is like a seesaw with this one. Obviously the market wants this trade wars going on to end now, miners will fly. Seeing more and more CEO commenting how Europe will be the main beneficiary if this trade wars continue between US and China? Nothing else too important I’m seeing today, let me know if I've missed something dramatically? Thanks Michael Porter
