Unfortunately hold SSK & down 20% at the mo. Will just have to wait and see developments. Not a willing seller yet.

Do not touch with flag pole, rather hammer in your survey beacons... some attraction should exist to favour certain constr companies. One sometimes speculate how integrated reporting (with "ethics" in mind) should be discounted in the public eye. From now on I will not trust a single word spoken or published by any SSK official.

Well, so far the cfds bought at the recent lows are paying quite reasonable dividends...with net cash of R55/share, 70% of earnings generated outside of SA and an orderbook that's slowly filling up, that famous Warren Buffett saying comes to mind..

Check today's SENS...the increased orderbook and workflow are translating into higher earnings once more...so obviously margins are stable at the very least..
