| Twitter was abuzz with the news that MultiChoice plans to offer content from Netflix and Amazon Prime as add-on services on its DStv platform in a bid to attract new customers - and retain existing customers who may otherwise be lured across to the global entertainment giants. It's likely to come at a cost though and will only be available to subscribers with its new Explora decoder. The video entertainment group's shares jumped 8.5% on the news, which came with the release of its first full-year results since it was unbundled by Naspers - and its promised maiden dividend. With dividends becoming scare in the current Covid-19 environment, Sygnia's shares also rose yesterday as it reported a strong increase in first-half profit and raised its interim dividend by 60%. Meanwhile, Hyprop, which recently withdrew its interim dividend due to Covid-19, says activity is picking up at its shopping centres. It still expects an impact on earnings this year as it negotiates lower rentals with struggling tenants. More on those stories to follow, along with news that Anglo American Platinum expects repairs at one of its converter plants to be completed next week. While its shares fell yesterday, they weren't down as much as some of its peers. I hope you have a good day. Stephen Gunnion Managing Editor, InceConnect
