Are people investing with monopoly money in our equities? Seems like one big game going on currently.

Precisely - not in the way you mean though - monopoly money. That is what it has become and that is the reason for this surge - the more valueless the currency - the more they demand hard assets rather than the paper they proffer.

Rand strength on the back of foreign buying of SA assets... ultimately the Rand will go one way though.

Anyway - I was referring to all currencies - not just the Rand. That said though, the Rand is a special and rather sad case.

Believe me Koos. The shorts are standing on the sidelines all with titanium coated ball boxes and crash helmets willing to jump in then the longs leave the party. The longs take the stares up, but the shorts will take the elevator down.
