Update: This page is an update on our blog post of 5 March 2018, in which we took a look at the share price performance of various food producers listed on the JSE such as RCL Foods, the owner of Rainbow Chickens Limited and TigerBrands (which owns Enterprise) and Pioneer Foods group (whose companies are not implicated in the Listeriosis outbreak. So how has these companies share prices performed since the announcement by government on the Listeriosis outbreak and the source of the outbreak?
We take a look below: |
Tiger Brands vs Pioneer Foods vs RCL Foods
The interactive graphics shows the share price performance over the last 3 years for Pioneer Foods (PFG), RCL Foods and that of TigerBrands (TBS). The graphic shows the performance of TigerBrands, and as soon as a user clicks on the other shares it shows the share price return for the shares selcted for the period seleccted. As the user changes the dates the graphic recalculates the returns of all the shares selected. Below the graphic we provide a brief summary of the main goods produced by the three food manufacturers selected in this graphic.
1 Month performance of Tiger Brands, Pioneer Foods and RCL Foods
The image below shows the 1 month share price returns of Tiger Brands, Pioneer Foods and RCL foods. Tiger Brands are down by -21.6% for the last month, while RCL foods showed an increase of 6.06% and Pioneer Foods showed a moderate decline of -8.9% in its share price. But we suspect RCL foods will get a hammering today as it was confirmed that Listeriosis was found at one of their factories. Expect that gains made by RCL over the last month to be wiped out pretty soon.
