Tonight’s BizNews Briefing opens with Piet Viljoen’s case for South African assets, despite what he calls political irrationality, arguing that resilient business people, strategic minerals and geography still matter. We then move to a market update led by Firstrand’s strong interim numbers, Implats’ mixed reaction, Treasury losing budget-office DDG Edgar Sishi, and STADIO’s upbeat growth signal. Peter Major follows with the view that Iran cannot shift global minerals markets and that South Africa has gained little from the relationship, before Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon says markets are still trying to work out the Iran endgame.
