Pulled the latest SENS, balance sheet still solid through this rate cycle
@scandi_jse64 yep, rates come down and this thing moves
@bullhammer_sa yep, finally some sense in here
Balance sheet holding up well through the rate environment, that's what matters here ngl
@scandi_jse64 rates aren't staying high forever though, inflation cooling down fast
Life book still generating decent cash even with the rate environment. Balance sheet holding up fine from what I can see.
Good morning everyone SLM holding above 90 rand pretty steady. Insurance book still looking solid from latest update.
Dividend yield still looks decent at these levels, ngl. Question is whether earnings hold up if rates stay high.
Sextant nailed it, the asset management play is where this goes. Balance sheet's solid, dividend's locked in, and they're growing that offshore book while the banks are drowning in bad loans from load shedding. Patient money wins here, SLM's not a quick flip.
@bombay_coach ja the yield is juicy hey, not letting this one go
@jim_jse4 yeah man, needs a catalyst. balance sheet solid but price stuck.
@franco_cape yeah man, stuck in neutral. waiting for something to actually move the needle.
Balance sheet strength and that dividend yield puts SLM in a different spot to the banks right now, especially with load shedding hammering their loan books. The asset management division growing offshore is where the real upside sits, less rand dependent than pure insurance. Positioned perfectly for patient money.
@guppy_jse spot on, that dividend yield is hard to walk away from
