Recession or sloppiness?

2 quarters of negative growth and SA screams recession.

0.7% down and everyone is screaming recession. I argue that the real reason is due to the lack of deal makers in the economy.

Deal makers are defined as chaps that have deal sleds.


Horsebit Deal sleds

Some say that there was a massive decline in the imports of horsebit deal sleds leading up to the marked decline in the overall go of the economy.

A recent study has shown that there is a 100% correlation between economic growth and the amount of deal sled imports.


Deal sledding vs economic activity.

To rectify this South Africa has chosen to do nothing.

A private delegation from the northern upper reaches of Polokwane has decided to drive to OR Tambo to fly to New York to try spark a new deal sled revolution.

God speed chaps.

Yours in sledding

The Sled.
