from MoneywebNOW · host Simon Brown

Matete Thulare from Investec unpacks why a hawkish Fed FOMC left the rand weaker and whether the local currency can still break below R16/$ again. Dr Thomas Brennan, founder and CEO of Franc, discusses the Wealth Index Report 2026 and why women consistently tend to be better investors. Plus, Simon weighs in on SpaceX's fast-tracked inclusion in global indices – and what that means for the ETFs tracking them.
