MTN and Vodacom shareholder returns compared

[mylesillidge]

If you invested R100 in Vodacom and MTN in 2009, here is how much you would have today

If you invested R100 in Vodacom and MTN thirteen years ago and reinvested dividends, Vodacom would have returned R451, much higher than MTN’s R207.

Vodacom and MTN are Africa’s largest telecommunications companies and dominate the local mobile market.

So it's about 3-6% annual rate of return.

Nothing special compared to a unit trust over the same period.

Strange that the colours on the chart is reversed. Would expect MTN to be the orange one...

Till 2011 MTN had been a real success story fpr guys that invested in the early days...

That’s anticlimactic
