Honestly the premium grocery side is solid, people aren't cutting back on good food even when times are tight. Fashion and Country Road though, that's the bit I'm watching because retail clothing is getting hammered everywhere.

Just opened an account, how do I know if 39.09 is expensive for Woolworths or cheap?
@loadshed_lindi true, Woolies is one of those you know people will keep buying from no matter what
@jozi_janet that makes sense, people always need groceries. Reckon that's why it's holding up so well even with everything else shaky.
Stage 4 tonight so my fridge is getting a workout before the lights go
@mogale_morning yep, even with load-shedding people are still buying groceries, so WHL just keeps ticking along
@jozi_janet ja, the grocery side is pretty defensive. People shop there no matter what's happening in the economy.
Been holding WHL for a while now, their supermarket business is just solid, people still need to eat and Woolworths has the premium end locked down. Last close at 39.09 isn't exciting but it's steady money if you're patient with it.
with R100, how much of WHL would I actually own, like is that even a full share?
Good Morning Everyone, WHL closed at 39.09 yesterday. Groceries are the backbone here, the Woolworths supermarket side keeps the whole group standing even when fashion slows down. That's why people keep holding it.
@jozi_janet exactly, groceries is the bread and butter
@jozi_janet Ja, groceries keeping the lights on for sure.
@jozi_janet ja, groceries keeping the whole thing afloat hey
@thandi_first_share Yeah, the grocery side is carrying it right now, lol ya
is 39.09 expensive for Woolworths or is that normal for the big companies?
Woolworths supermarkets are everywhere in SA, so when people have money to spend on better quality groceries they go there. That's why I reckon the stock matters, but the fashion side has been rough with all the load-shedding affecting foot traffic.
@trpine_patient nice to see some life in it again.
39.10, nice to see the momentum holding.
