Loading player...
Volatility is still the name of the Fantasy Fund Manager game, as Richemont and Pick n Pay are down more than 10 percent for the week. But what is this signalling? On the Fantasy Fund Manager podcast, BizNews' Stuart Lowman was joined by Corion Capital's Garreth Montano and Dylan Bradfield, a portfolio manager at Sharenet, to dissect the current rotation happening in the local market. But where does the opportunity lie, Dylan points to a potential rotation into insurers. The pros and cons of company share buybacks were also discussed, with both leaning towards the former, potentially better use of capital than dividends.
