Rational Radio: SAA uncut, snubbing God of Economics and local banking insights.

Loading player...
Biznews founder Alec Hogg hosts the weekly Rational Radio podcast hour, which is now recorded as a webcast to allow interactive engagement with Biznews Premium members. SA's favourite market watcher David Shapiro joined as the regular guest.
The other guests June 1 included:
* Denker Capital's Kokkie Kooyman, SA's leading financial services investment analyst who revisited his brilliant call of a few weeks ago to buy banking shares (which have surged since).
* Retired airline pilot and ex chairman of the SAA Pilot's Association Jimmy Conroy who was instrumental in bringing the court case against former SAA chair Dudu Myeni. He spent days working on the case and was in court every day of the trial.
* Anthony Levine who published a fascinating piece on Biznews last week unpacking how economics doesn't conform to the wills and desires of politicians who ignore it at their peril - and how the God of Economics has been snubbed by South Africa's Labour Relations Act.
