Today in Ghost Biz, Gary Stroebel and The Finance Ghost discuss:

• Caxton: Print and advertising pressures continue to weigh on results. While digital ad revenue is growing strongly, it’s still not enough to offset declining newspaper and packaging volumes.

• Nedbank: Earnings growth remains modest at around 3%, as the bank reshapes its African strategy — exiting Ecobank and targeting a controlling stake in East Africa’s NCBA.

• Bidvest: A solid performance with steady revenue and profit growth, as the group continues focusing on margins and expanding its global hygiene business.
