S3E27: Why You Need to Break Up with Sasol (And Stop Being Loyal to Stocks)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If you are a new investor on the JSE, there is a good chance you own Sasol. It’s a household name, it feels safe, and when it’s good, it’s great. But when it’s bad? It’s devastating.
In this video, I break down why Sasol’s extreme volatility (swinging from R53 to R129!) makes it a dangerous "first love" for beginners. We look at the recent "good news" trap like the destoning plant and fuel volumes—and why the underlying reality of the chemicals business and gas shortages might just break your heart again.
Most importantly, I explain why you need to stop treating your stocks like family and start acting like a ruthless CEO. It’s time to fire the underperformers.
