Towards the end of August, we received news from Stats SA that a detailed review of data stretching back to the dawn of democracy suggested that South Africa had been underestimating the size of its economy. While growth rates were approximately right, the current size of the economy is about 11 percent larger than previously thought. For struggling residents of South Africa, this will not mean much but for economists it does yield an improved debt-to-GDP ratio.

Having said that, equity markets have started to signal a slowdown in growth. Sector performance leadership is narrowing, and bond yields in the US and elsewhere remain at low levels. We continue to believe that inflation is likely to prove transitory. The real question that needs to be addressed is whether growth will come through sufficiently in 2022 to support earnings. We suspect not.

Given the lag in any fresh stimulus through the money multiplier, China is likely to reflect lower growth in the quarters ahead. The impact of Xi Jinping’s version of cultural revolution and the quest by the Communist Party to quell activity in gaming and the like is likely to amplify the slowdown. In a similar vein the US is moving from fiscal thrust to fiscal drag as stimulus cheques end in September leaving several million American households without an income. Of concern to equity markets will be the impact that this has on consumer spending.

A range of indicators we monitor point to the equity market discounting a much slower rate of earnings growth into 2022 in these sectors.

With this as background we are pleased to report a solid month for your portfolio. Our activity during the month has included implementation of a hedging strategy and judiciously taking profits in key growth stocks.
