Business Day TV is South Africa’s most watched business news TV channel who does short (usually 1-3 minutes long) Daily Stock Pick video pitches mostly about South African stock picks (this post won’t cover any USA based ones, but does cover their other non-South African picks).
Stocks featured in their August Daily Stock Pick videos (from newest to oldest) and covered in this post include:
Motus Holdings, Bid Corporation, Stadio Holdings, Curro Holdings, ASML, MultiChoice Group, Netcare, Glencore, Adcock Ingram, Absa, Ethos Capital Partners (EPE Capital Partners), Kering, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, British American Tobacco, Caxton and CTP Publishers and Printers, Standard Bank, Nedbank, Teleperformance SE, Investec, Grindrod, Ashmore PLC, Sasol, Tencent, Super Group, Quilter PLC, Zeda, Barloworld, Bidvest, Mr Price Group, Lewis Group, Omnia Holdings, Richemont, Stor-Age Property REIT Ltd, African Rainbow Minerals and Sibanye-Stillwater

The South Africa Stock Market (SAALL) is expected to trade at 71380.31 points by the end of this quarter, according to Trading Economics global macro models and analysts expectations. Looking forward, we estimate it to trade at 65655.21 in 12 months time.
Inflation has also eased which should help South Africa’s economy and many individual South African stocks:
