The JSE ended a run of three consecutive gains on Friday as investors waited so see whether SA would lose its last remaining investment-grade credit rating.
Local trading finished before a widely anticipated review by Moody’s Investors Service, which is expected after US markets close, with speculation that it might come any time between 10pm and 2am locally. A downgrade by the agency could see billions of rand being pulled from SA markets as the country’s bonds fall out of key indices used by foreign investors for benchmarking purposes.
