Growth concerns have prompted caution on global markets, but the local exchange is still set to push higher for the week
The JSE edged lower on Thursday morning, but was on track for its sixth-consecutive week of gains, amid subdued activity on global markets.
Asian and European markets were lower in morning trade, with international focus on US retail sales numbers, due at 2.30pm SA time. EOH gave back 2.63% to R22.20. The company’s share price has rocketed about 97% this week, as it pursues a turnaround strategy.
