Question
South African GDP grows for sixth consecutive quarter in Q1 2026
Direct answer
Ongoing but modest growth supports South African equity benchmarks like the FTSE/JSE All Share Index (J203) and underpins medium-term demand for SAGBs, while limiting expectations of near-term SARB rate cuts that would affect the R186 yield.
