Show Notes

With the release of interim results for the six months ended February 2023, Purple Group is reflecting the broader economic and social issues that are plaguing South Africa. With huge pressure on consumer budgets, there simply isn’t enough left over for investment.

Purple Group and its EasyEquities business are cyclical and we are now at a painful point in the cycle. To unpack what that looks like and what the future of Purple Group holds, CEO Charles Savage joined me on Ghost Stories.

We discussed topics including:

I hope that you enjoy this show and that it helps you in your assessment of the Purple Group share price. Please do your own research and remember that an appearance on Ghost Stories doesn’t mean that I endorse the company that the executive in question is representing.

Note: although EasyEquities is an important partner to Ghost Mail, my commentary on the Purple Group share price and business model has always been and will always be independent.
