- Lonmin (JSE code: LON) announces a massive rights issue to deal with their debt maturing in the second quarter of 2016. There was a massive spike initially (short squeeze) before it settled down.
- Famous Brands (JSE code: FBR) were not bad. However, top line-growth did not translate into bottom-line growth as margins got squeezed.
