    Inflation risks rise as fuel costs climb & SA rethinks what generational wealth really means

    Stephen Grootes speaks to Johann Els, Chief Economist at PSG Group about the latest potential fuel price shock will mean for inflation, interest rates and potential government intervention on the fuel levy.With petrol and diesel prices set for sharp increases driven by surging global oil prices and a weaker rand, the knock-on effects are expected to filter quickly through the economy raising transport costs, pushing up food prices and adding renewed pressure on inflation. In other interviews, Hayley Parry, Money Coach and Facilitator at 1Life’s Truth About Money talks about new survey findings showing how South Africans are redefining generational wealth in a tougher economic climate. The data points to a clear shift away from material markers like cars and even property, toward more sustainable, long-term wealth strategies. While asset ownership remains key, fewer people now associate wealth with property or cash savings, with growing recognition of tools like life insurance and financial planning as pathways to building and transferring wealth across generations.

    Stephen Grootes speaks to Kevin Lings, Chief Economist at Stanlib Asset Management, about the South African Reserve Bank’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged at 6.75%, the possible inflationary pressures driven by soaring oil prices and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, and what these risks could mean for consumers and the broader economic outlook in the coming months.

    Exxaro shifts beyond coal as earnings hold firm & Middle East war threatens global fertiliser supply

    Stephen Grootes speaks to Ben Magara, CEO of Exxaro Resources about their latest results, which reflect a resilient performance despite weaker coal prices, with headline earnings per share up 8% and revenue edging higher on disciplined cost management. The results come at a strategic inflection point for the group as it pivots beyond coal, highlighted by its R10.6 billion acquisition of a stake in the Tshipi Borwa manganese mine positioning Exxaro in a key energy transition mineral alongside continued investment in renewable energy through its Cennergi division. With a higher dividend and a shift in capital allocation, the focus now turns to execution, integrating new assets and driving growth in a more diversified portfolio. In other interviews, Thabile Nkunjana, Agricultural economist talks about the growing risks to global fertiliser markets and food security as conflict in the Middle East disrupts key supply routes and production hubs. With a significant share of the world’s fertiliser trade moving through the Strait of Hormuz, supply constraints are already pushing prices sharply higher particularly for nitrogen-based products like urea that are critical for crop yields. We look how rising input costs could filter through to farmers, squeeze margins, and ultimately impact food prices, especially in import-reliant countries like South Africa, where the knock-on effects could be felt across the entire agricultural value chain.
