| Poor old Massmart's troubles have been well documented in Ghost Mail and in the broader market. Game has been a huge headache and the group just hasn't achieved the turnaround that was hoped for. Wholesale changes are on the horizon (see what I did there?), with a change in CEO and a potential offer from Walmart of R62 per share. This is a get-out-of-jail for Massmart shareholders in my opinion, as the group has been deteriorating further and the share price has reflected that reality. For the official announcement from the companies, refer to this article in Ghost Mail. Although some saw Grindrod Shipping as a potential takeover candid ate and perhaps weren't shocked by the announcement, it really wasn't a great day for the JSE investment universe to see news of this company potentially leaving the JSE harbour. Taylor Maritime Investment Limited has made a non-binding proposal based on $26 per share, driving the share price nearly 20% higher on the day. In addition to these significant potential delistings, Ghost Bites covers earnings releases from Steinhoff, MAS plc, ADvTECH, Sea Harvest Group, Hulamin and Sun International. Such is the recovery in tourism that Sun International has declared its first dividend since 2016!
