Harmony Takes Off

The gold price has been in a persistent correction since its record high on 28th January 2026. It has been in what technical analysts call a descending flag formation which we have drawn you attention to on several occasions. As with any formation we are looking for the direction of the breakout from that formation to give a clear idea of the future trend. In the case of gold, we have always been confident that it would break to the upside – and that is what it did last week on 19th August 2026.

Spur Corporation: A Strong South African Brand with Investment Potential

Spur Corporation has grown from a household-name restaurant chain into a diversified business with multiple well-known brands, its own manufacturing operations and an expanding international presence.

Our latest PDSNET analysis looks at Spur’s strong balance sheet, with more than R400 million in cash and almost no significant debt at the end of 2025, as well as its growing dividend and earnings.

Japanese Candlesticks

Long before the Western World had even understood that the study of charts might be beneficial, the Japanese were constructing and studying rice futures charts in a system which today we call candlestick charting. Before candlesticks charts, everyone was using bar charts but today you hardly ever see a bar chart.

What most investors do not know is that there are literally hundreds of candlestick formations each of which have been extensively analysed and have their own particular interpretations. If you are interested in this, you should get hold of a copy of Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques: A Contemporary Guide to the Ancient Investment Techniques of the Far East, (1991). The author of the book is Steve Nison.
