People have to eat. When I say people I say the masses.
Shoprite is a massive massive massive giant in this space and it's director will show mass mart a thing or two
you realise SHP is down 26% over the past 3 years?

Lonmin has grown in value for 5 consecutive days, going from an all time low of R8.21 increasing 67% and now sitting on R13.77
This is by far the most bizarre share I have ever had to misfortune of trading in as all predictions are utterly useless in the short term.
I can only imagine that this sudden spike in value won't last much longer, but then again it's been so unpredictable it might just turn around and continue growing.
Well the share price is all over the place today, down 6% and then up 6% , driving me nuts!
a day trader going short and long is probably having a field day with this share
Platinum is 0,54% up today as of right now lets see what lonmin does![]()

Nope, and here's why:
1. Oil is back up above $33. Many investors will return to normal equities abroad again.
2. Gold companies in SA saw a decline of 8%+ the past 48 hours, due to above.
3. Gold price fell from $1118 to $1113 the past day and it is still going down.
4. Rand is strengthening against the Dollar and gold companies will earn less money.
These are a few things investors look at before moving into Gold.
After Friday losses and some more today I finally cut my losses with lonmin. Will buy more if it drops very low and starts sky rocketing again.
