Husky Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Cry the beloved country. Zuma fired 10 ministers and 10 deputy ministers in a major cabinet reshuffle last night. Most of whom were competent. Includes the skilled, highly competent minister of finance Pravin Gordhan. Power captured. Just in case you were still in doubt! .... and here I was just about to book tickets for our LSD trip in July. #whowillstandup 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisH Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Fun and games, the Rand was at R9.47 just a week ago... sitting on R10.32 as we speak and the day hasn't even started yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karools Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Words fail me. The rand was doing so well (relatively). He just cost me so many dollars.... Hopefully the backlash to this will end up with him being removed from office and finally being charged for the 780 corruption charges etc etc. This cannot continue. Cry the beloved country. Cry for my loved ones staying behind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wonderer Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Such very poor timing!!! Transfering our money today. He could have waited till monday.... Such a risk as one don't know how long (and if) it will stabilise again. (We tried for earlier but it just didn't work out that way) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husky Posted March 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Wow, thanks @ChrisH The prices are fantastic. Now there is the small constraint of the special being out of school holidays ...... Mmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisH Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Junk rating from S&P, with Moodys putting our rating up for review for downgrade... We've gone from R9.47/AUD on the 24th of March to R10.50/AUD today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
