This gave local markets a bit of a fright, but locals re-investing coupons kept yields from running away too hard. Expect this to continue into the auction this morning, and expect bids in the secondary market up to the 8.63 level on R186. We open unchanged.

3 Currencies Business Banking FX Corporate FX Institutional FX The new week opened with the rand having staged a modest recovery to trade at around , some good two way flows initially but this was short lived and once the dollar buyers dominated as a result of various comments regarding the amendment of the constitution and the mandate of the SARB by the public protector, this saw the local unit weaken to a high of , before a modest recovery going into the local close, to trade at at that time. This morning the rand is currently trading at , EURZAR is trading at and GBPZAR at International markets were once again skittish, after having recovered to trade back around the level in the wake of the French election results the euro traded generally weaker for the majority of the session, although not spectacularly so, trading down to a low of where we closed the session, this morning EURUSD currently trading at Gold has drifted marginally weaker after holding above the mark for most of last week, this morning currently trading at Data releases scheduled for today, locally we have leading index, current account and the release of the SARB quarterly bulletin, and from Europe we have Eurozone current account and Italian current account data, the same current account data from the U.S. The on-going pronouncements regarding mining charters, changes to the constitution and the mandate of the SARB create an environment which is not conducive to stability and confidence and this has seen the rand pay the price for this over the past two sessions, having traded to a best level below last week.

The oil market remains in a supply glut, even though OPEC is actively pursuing production cuts. Apart from Saudi Arabia and a handful of other OPEC countries, the compliance rate has been dismal, particularly within non-opec countries like Russia which have not yet achieved their target for the YTD. It is now questionable as to whether the balance of the production cuts will materialise, given the dismal reaction of the oil price to these stabilisation efforts and the lack of compliance by most non-opec countries. Gold dipped below $1250/oz. yesterday, and will likely continue weaker towards $1230/oz. in the near term as the dollar maintains its resilience over the last week.

5 06/12 06/13 06/14 06/15 06/19 Equities Cash equities /31 South Africa We gapped up at the open, playing catch up following the Youth Day holiday on Friday, and grinded higher throughout the day and closed at the highs of the day. Resources jumped +1.9%, financials increased by 0.6% and financials surged +2.2% to help the Top40 close up +1.9%. Resources recouped losses from Thursday s onslaught and industrials flourished on the rand s weakness. The top performers on the Top40 were Mondi (+6%), Discovery (+4%) and Naspers (+3.8%). The value traded was R21 billion and the rand was hovering around to the US dollar at the close. We expect the SA current account data for the first quarter out later today. UK/Europe European markets opened in positive territory and maintained those gains and closed off the highs but firmly in the black, the Dax gained +1%, the Cac rose +0.9% and the FTSE added +0.8%. Victory of Macron's party in the French parliament sparked the positive mood around the region which was supported by positive economic and company news. Brexit negotiations with the EU began and the Central European bank published the details of the Emergence Liquidity Assistance (ELA) which would provide temporary lifeline to banks. Airbus climbed +2% after unveiling an upgrade to their passenger jet, Rolls-Royce rose +1.9% after a positive update and Aberdeen Asset Manger jumped +5% after shareholders approved their merger with Standard Life. USA Asia US markets closed a subdued trading session in positive territory led by tech stocks, the Dow rose +0.7%, the S&P500 advanced +0.8% and the Nasdaq shot up +1.4%, with those moves the Dow and S&P500 recorded new highs. Lack of major US economic data caused the lack of direction and markets looked across the Atlantic for direction. Clovis Oncology jumped after a positive late trial to their ovarian cancer drug boosting the biopharmaceutical sector, strength was also seen in the semiconductor, internet and airline stocks. Asian stocks are trading lower this morning, despite the record close on Wall Street last night; the MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan is up 0.2%. The cautious trade around the region was in anticipation of whether the MCSI would include China A shares in its world emerged market index after the three previous rejections. The Japanese market is up on a weak yen following hawkish remarks by New York Fed president. Lower commodity prices are dragging the Australian market lower. Tencent is currently trading up +1.3% in Hong Kong this morning.

8 Foreign flows Nedbank CIB Market Commentary Last week, foreign investors withdrew R7.7 billion from the bond and equity market. The bond market experience d the biggest sell-off in 19 weeks, led by sharp outflows in the latter part of the week as the new Mining Charter was announced, causing volatility in financial markets, and hampering foreign investor sentiment in the process. For the month to date, all gains in the bond market have been erased, while equity outflows have ballooned to R14.6 billion. Given the recent turn in sentiment, local political headlines, suggestions by the Public Protector that the Constitutional mandate of the SARB be changed to advance socio-economic transformation, this may keep foreign sentiment subdued in the near term. Outflows are likely to persist this week, until markets achieve some relative calm after recent headlines.
