United States inflation fell to 3% in June, the lowest in three years, as increased interest rates started to bite. This easing in CPI has lifted hopes that the current trend of rising interest rates will be cooled. But what does all this mean for a South African investor? This week on the Fantasy Fund Manager podcast BizNews' Stuart Lowman was joined by Corion Capital's Garreth Montano and Grant Morris, a portfolio manager at CluclasGray Asset Management to try to answer this ever-changing scenario.
