Portfolio Performance and Changes
In the second quarter of 2024, the FTSE/JSE Top 40 Index (Top 40) had a return of
7.94%, underperforming the FTSE/JSE ALSI Index, which had a return of 8.19%.
Financials were the star performers during the second quarter with a number of
counters all returning double-digit returns. Banks’ revenue growth benefited from
higher interest rates and the focus of recent years on superior and increasingly
digital customer experiences was leveraged, translating into higher transaction
volumes. Capitec (CPI) (+27.3%), FirstRand (FSR) (+24.5%), Standard Bank (SBK)
(+18.5%) and Nedbank (NED) (+17.19%) had strong positive performance over the
quarter. Sanlam (SLM) (+23.8%) also performed well.
Retailers Mr Price (MRP) (+18.4%) Clicks Group Ltd (CLS) (+17.0%) and Shoprite
Holdings (SHP) (+14.7%) all had strong positive returns for the quarter.
Resource stocks were the hardest hit during the quarter with Anglo American
Platinum (AMS) (-21.7%) being the biggest loser after BHP’s bold bid for Anglo
American, minus its key South African assets which include Anglo American
Platinum, drove the stock price down more than 10%. Other miners including Gold
Fields (GFI) (-10%) and Sibanye-Stillwater (SSW) (-9%) also fared poorly over the
quarter.
At the June 2024 FTSE/JSE index review there were no additions to or deletions
from the index. The one-way turnover was 0.84%.
