Precious metals (PM) have really struggled this week, with the following weekly movement in USD: Gold TVC:GOLD -5.65% Silver TVC:SILVER -7.17% Platinum TVC:PLATINUM -7.2% Palladium TVC:PALLADIUM -8.23% All these PM’s seems to be heavily oversold over the shorter-term, which could see a bit of a recovery over the next week or two. Why is this important?...
strategy buy and hold this index goes into my emerging market portfolio including: Russia Poland India Indonesia Mexico Russia South Africa Brasil
South Africa is one Emerging Market economy poised for success given the recent dollar weakness. Today's retail sales data, +2.6% YoY vs 0.4% last month proves sequential acceleration in the macro data. Moreover, the noise around Eskom and SAA has been going on for years now and is merely noise.

From the beginning of 2020, you can see from the chart that RAND (BRL) currency has depreciated more than 38% against the US dollars.
