September 24, 2024 Beleidsonsekerheid is laer
Om te sê dat die Regering van Nasionale Eenheid is beter as enige alternatief wat ons kon gehad het sê seker nie veel nie, maar dit is waar dat hulle ŉ groot positiewe impak gehad het op sentiment en vertroue. Verbruiksvertroue en sakevertroue lyk beter en beleidsonsekerheid is minder.

September 24, 2024 Policy uncertainty is lower
To say that the Government of National Unity is better than any alternative we could have had is probably not saying much, but it is true that they have had a big positive impact on sentiment and confidence. Consumer confidence and business confidence look better and policy uncertainty is less.

September 23, 2024 Die ekonomie van sport
Ekonome het ŉ belangstelling in sport. Daar is natuurlik die Moneyball aspek, maar gaan dit oor data. Sport genereer data en dit is op baie maniere meer suiwer as regte wêreld ekonomiese data en kan help om ekonomiese vrae te beantwoord.

September 23, 2024 The economics of sport
Economists have an interest in sport. There is of course the Moneyball aspect, but it is also about data. Sport generates data and it is in many ways more pure than real world economic data and can help answer economic questions.

September 20, 2024 Toe sny hulle met 25 bps
Mens voel so bietjie teleurgesteld dat die Monetêre Beleidskomitee nie die repo met 50 basispunte gesny het nie, maar net met 25. So wat nou?

September 20, 2024 The 25 bps cut is the deepest
One feels a little disappointed that the Monetary Policy
Committee did not cut the repo by 50 basis points, but only by 25. So what now?

September 19, 2024 Die argument vir 'n 50 bps verlaging
As jy gereeld na my podsending luister sal jy weet ek is ten gunste van streng monetêre beleid en simpatiek met die uitdagings wat die Monetêre Beleidskomitee in die gesig staar – dit is moeilik om die neutrale rentekoers reg te kry en inflasie by die teiken te hou – so baie goed is buite hulle beheer. Maar vandag wil ek ŉ beroep op hulle doen om, soos mens in Engels sê, “bold”, te wees vir ekonomiese groei se onthalwe.

September 19, 2024 The case for a 50 bps cut
If you listen to my podcast regularly you will know that I
am generally in favour of strict monetary policy and sympathetic to the challenges facing the Monetary Policy Committee - it is difficult to get the neutral interest rate right and keep inflation on target - so many things are outside of their control. But today I want to appeal to them to be bold, for the sake of economic growth.

September 18, 2024 Die dinge waaraan die MBK dink
Die Monetêre Beleidskomitee vergader sedert gister en maak more middag hulle repokoers besluit bekend. Die verwagting is dat hulle die repokoers met 25 basispunte gaan sny. Ek het gedink dit is goed om vinnig te praat oor al die dinge wat hulle oorweeg.

September 18, 2024 The things that the MPC is thinking about
The Monetary Policy Committee has been meeting since yesterday and will announce their repo rate decision tomorrow afternoon. The expectation is that they will cut the repo rate by 25 basis points. I thought it would be good to talk about all the things they are considering.
