The rand takes massive load shedding hit

75% of the rand’s underperformance over the last two years can be attributed to load-shedding.

The anc will never admit this or anything for that matter.

And the 8 months of no load shedding?

 

[Polymathic]

Rand is still sitting at over R18 to the USD

And the 8 months of no load shedding?

They forget about the predicted long-term downturn of the "It's only 2 weeks to flatten the curve". It will never be admitted by the likes of BusinessTech as they were marching at the forefront of favouring lockdowns.

Loadshedding for sure didn't help but it isn't the primary reason IMO.

This is Africa, we dont do logical questions to media opinions.

Yup, the thing logical people said was a dumb idea and will cause global implications.

The memory-holing of the lockdowns from across the board is incredible. There is a blanket refusal to admit the economic fallout it has caused, with all kinds of blame being put onto everything else but lockdowns.

As i told my employees just before Lockdown started:

"You okes are gonna sit at home in lockdown with your cockdown...so make the best of your holidays and concentrate on your family. You will all get paid as per usual and no leave will be subtracted".

Okes even started working from home if something minor came up without me asking...

takes: present tense
load shedding: past tense

so this "underperformance" is magically going to be erased purely by having no loadshedding if the original hypothesis is correct?

Yup indeed, massive fallout and no one blames the real reason.
