“It’s fair to describe it as a feel-good budget on the basis that the worst-case scenario was significantly worse than what came out. They could have said, ‘We’re giving R100bn straight away to Eskom’ and then Moody’s would have been finding reasons for a downgrade, pronto. They [Treasury] didn’t do that, because they’re cognizant of the risks.” – Chris Holdsworth, Investment Strategist, Investec.. https://invest.ec/2tF7H3P |
