SLMTuesday 21-May-2024.This is a high risk idea thus smaller positions will apply. The share has developed a 'V-shaped' reversal, with aggressive buying in recent weeks, however, the current rating reflects excessively overbought conditions into overhead resistance.

Impala PLatinum fantastic for upside to R170.35With the PLatinum price running up very nicely and setting it's for a rally - JSE PLatinum stocks are looking almost perfect to buy.

Then the nature will be HPT and the target will be around R271.81
