Executive Summary
  • Sasol's 28-day surge of +17.8% to 232.01 ZAR reflects renewed investor confidence in South Africa's energy sector amid structural demand.
  • As a major local energy producer, Sasol benefits from Eskom's ongoing capacity crisis—higher electricity prices support margins and justify premium valuations.
  • Rand weakness (if sustained) boosts export competitiveness; Sasol's chemical and fuel exports earn hard currency while local costs remain ZAR-denominated.
