Compelling Reasons to Invest Now
Why Invest Now? Even with the current financial world
turmoil, the Global Economy has never been better. China,
India and Russia are moving away from closed economies to
open capitalistic reforms. This is expected to drive
global demand growth for at least the next 20 to 30 years
as around 2,5 billion people start to become active
consumers.
These emerging markets are fuelling probably the greatest
demand the world has ever seen for commodities, goods and
services. As the Subprime debacle recedes, there appears
no end in sight for many years to come and SA is part of
these emerging markets.
South Africa is the dominant economy in Africa enjoying
first world banking and financial services, while the SA
Government is forced to invest in building major
infrastructure for this new emerging nation. It is
feasible; tax revenue collection is healthy; growth on the
JSE over time will deliver higher wage and corporate
taxes. Our commodities and services are in great demand.
The 2010 FIFA world cup soccer extravaganza will change
our lives as never before.
In the short term, the Subprime debacle has provided a
unique opportunity to buy Blue Chip shares at discounts.
