26 February 2026 · 16:54 min
In this episode of Business Talk, host Michael Avery speaks to Wendy Myers, Head of PSG Securities, about the recent strength in the rand and what it means for South African investors.

Wendy explains how global risk sentiment, commodity prices, interest rate differentials and dollar weakness shape returns — and why disciplined, long-term investing matters more than reacting emotionally to currency swings.
