SA Inc results, the risk-on environment and possible interest-rate rises
âThe world is bouncing back a lot quicker than people expected from a developed world perspective, and in the US in particularâ â Deryck Janse van Rensburg, Anchor Capital. 12:03
SIMON BROWN: I’m chatting now with Deryck Janse van Rensburg from Anchor Capital. Deryck, morning. I appreciate your time after the long weekend. There are two points I want to touch on this morning. Firstly, we’ve seen the results largely come through for the December year-end for companies on the JSE: South African Inc results, our retailers and the like â how are they? My sense is [they’re] not a bad set of results, considering we had a pandemic last year. I think they mostly came out perhaps better than expected.

Markets are about as polarised as they’ve ever been, with extreme divergences existing between developed and emerging markets; small cap shares versus large cap; and growth shares versus value. And these extremes should be viewed in conjunction with the most notable extreme in modern-day markets: interest rates.
The 10-year US government bond is at the lowest it has been in 220 years. And if you view the US government bond as a proxy for interest rates, what we are currently seeing are the lowest interest rates in 220 years.
While the history of the South African repo rate doesn’t stretch back 220 years, it is currently the lowest it has been in 55 years at 3.5%.
