- Description
- The rand has pushed through R16 to the US dollar, touching R15.99 for the first time in almost six months. While that may sound like a clear vote of confidence in South Africa, much of the movement has been linked to a subdued dollar, stronger commodity prices and improving sentiment towards emerging-market currencies.
Gareth Edwards and Aakash Bramdeo explain why a stronger rand does not automatically mean a stronger domestic economy. They also unpack what the exchange rate could mean for imported costs, fuel prices, inflation, interest rates and South Africans holding dollar-based offshore investments.

Zungu argues that governance and accountability sit at the heart of football’s credibility problem, but the conversation quickly moves beyond the election itself.
From school football and the gulf between rugby and football development systems to refereeing standards, VAR, women’s facilities and the struggle to reconnect professional clubs with local supporters, the discussion asks whether fixing SA football requires far more than changing the person at the top. Zungu also sets himself a four-year accountability test, saying SAFA should look like “cheese and chalk” compared with where it is today if he gets the opportunity to lead it.
