September 04, 2024Ghost Wrap #79 (CA Sales Holdings | RCL Foods and Rainbow Chicken | Motus | Bidvest)
Ghost Wrap is your regular update on the most interesting company news in the South African market.

This episode covers:
CA Sales Holdings has a great business model that is still working beautifully.

RCL Foods and Rainbow Chicken have reported numbers together for the last time, which gives us an opportunity to reflect on exactly why the unbundling made sense.

Motus is struggling at the moment and the market doesn't seem to be punishing the share price, presumably because of the expectation of interest rate cuts.

Bidvest reminds us of the value of diversification, with five out of seven divisions in the green and a reasonable overall result at group level.
