Not enough data
Ed Stoddard's articles primarily cover the local finance and economic landscape in South Africa, with a particular focus on economic indicators, government policies, and the mining industry. His coverage heavily relies on data citations and government announcements.
Given his focus on finance & economy as well as government & politics in South Africa, Ed would likely be interested in pitches related to expert analysis of economic trends, policy insights from local or national political figures, or commentary on developments within the mining sector. Additionally, since he frequently cites data in his articles, he may also be receptive to pitches that offer unique access to relevant datasets or statistical analyses pertaining to South African economic indicators.
Pitches should specifically address how they tie into the local context of Johannesburg and broader South Africa while providing valuable insights into topics such as economic outlooks, inflation trends, stock market dynamics, and developments within the mining industry.

Clearly, there are a lot of South African households in need of a liquidity shot. But there does not seem to be a mad scramble for cash as outlined in the SA Reserve Bank's high withdrawal scenario.

The data comes the day before the SA Reserve Bank wraps up its Monetary Policy Committee meeting, which is widely expected to follow its 25-basis point rate cut in September with another of the same size.
For now, the inflation and interest rate outlook are the brightest they have been for years, testimony to the SA Reserve Bank’s relentless focus on inflation. That is something to raise a glass to.
