- [Why Is DXY Rising or Falling Today?](https://africafeeds.com/2026/10/07/why-is-dxy-rising-or-falling-today/): DXY can rise or fall for several reasons at once. The most useful way to read the move is not to hunt for a single explanation, but to identify the dominant driver.  Three questions to ask Did US rate expectations change? Higher expected rates can support the dollar by increasing the relative appeal of dollar assets.  Was there a data surprise? Inflation, employment, retail sales and GDP can alter the outlook for Federal Reserve policy.  Did risk sentiment shift? During periods of market stress, demand for dollar liquidity can increase even when the US data calendar is quiet.  Because the euro […]
- [South Africa’s Cricket Summer Begins With Australia](https://africafeeds.com/2026/10/07/south-africas-cricket-summer-begins-with-australia/): Australia’s visit opens a long South African cricket summer, with England and the SA20 to follow before next year’s home World Cup. Each contest brings a new betting question, beginning with who will win three Tests against the world’s top-ranked side. Australia’s Test tour begins at Kingsmead in Durban, then follows the coast to Gqeberha and Cape Town. At St George’s Park, the brass band plays beyond the boundary. Newlands has Table Mountain behind it. Those familiar scenes will frame a rivalry with unfinished business. Australia lead the ICC Test rankings with a rating of 126, seven points above South Africa.

- [How to Watch DXY Trading Costs on an Exness Demo Account](https://africafeeds.com/2026/10/02/how-to-watch-dxy-trading-costs-on-an-exness-demo-account/): An Exness demo account allows traders to observe DXY prices, spreads and simulated position costs without using real funds. It can be useful for learning where costs appear, seeing how they change during different trading sessions and testing whether a strategy remains viable after those costs are considered.  Demo conditions are similar to real-account conditions, but they are not identical. A demo result should therefore be treated as a practical estimate rather than a guarantee of future live execution.²  What a demo account can show  The most visible DXY trading cost is the spread: the difference between the current bid and […]

The offer seeks to raise as much as $2.1 billion to support the refinery’s expansion plans and broaden public ownership of the facility. Dangote described the sale as a “people’s IPO,” saying it is designed to allow ordinary Nigerians and other retail investors to benefit from the refinery’s growth.

Forward Marie Ngah scored twice in the first half as the Indomitable Lionesses finally ended their long wait for continental glory after losing three previous finals. The triumph came against a Malawi side that had captured hearts across the tournament with a remarkable run to the final on their WAFCON debut.

- [What Africa Can Learn from the European Monetary Union](https://africafeeds.com/2026/08/11/what-africa-can-learn-from-the-european-monetary-union/): European leaders signed the Maastricht Treaty in February 1992. The euro existed as a working currency for financial markets and businesses seven years later, in January 1999, with physical notes and coins following in 2002. 11 countries qualified for that first wave. Getting there took a specific, published, numeric test, not a general commitment to integrate. That test is the part of the European story that tends to get skipped in African monetary union coverage, which favors the euro as a symbol of what a single currency can achieve over the actual mechanics of how 11 very different economies qualified to […]
- [Luanda Declaration charts inclusive African blue economy](https://africafeeds.com/2026/08/09/luanda-declaration-charts-inclusive-african-blue-economy/): African Union governments have just given fresh momentum to the continent’s blue economy ambitions by adopting the Luanda Declaration. Agreed during the Third Africa Blue Economy Week, held in Luanda, Angola from 22 to 24 July, the Declaration places stronger governance, reliable investment and clearer accountability at the centre of efforts to turn Africa’s waters into engines of prosperity, food security, employment and climate resilience. Crucially, the summit’s participants made clear that further strategy will mean little without implementation. Alongside stronger action against illegal fishing, stakeholders from the worlds of government, finance, business and civil society called for women, young people […]
- [Africans back free movement but wary of migrants](https://africafeeds.com/2026/08/06/africans-back-free-movement-but-wary-of-migrants/): A new Afrobarometer report reveals strong support for cross-border movement across Africa, but also uncovers growing concerns about immigration, jobs, and refugees, even as more Africans consider leaving their home countries in search of economic opportunities abroad. A majority of Africans support the free movement of people across the continent, according to a new Afrobarometer flagship report, but many are less enthusiastic about welcoming immigrants into their own countries. The 2026 African Insights Report, based on interviews with more than 50,000 citizens across 38 African countries, found that while most Africans favour easier movement across borders, concerns about jobs, economic opportunities, […]
- [Why Betway Became Part Of The African Matchday](https://africafeeds.com/2026/08/06/why-betway-became-part-of-the-african-matchday/): Sports betting in Africa did not appear in a quiet room. It came into places where football was already everywhere. That is the part people sometimes miss. The argument was already happening before the betting app opened. People were already talking about Arsenal, Chelsea, Sundowns, Asante Kotoko, Orlando Pirates, Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Zambia, Botswana, AFCON, the Premier League and whichever referee had ruined the weekend. Betway online stepped into that kind of sports culture. It did not have to create the interest. The interest was already loud enough. Football Does Most Of The Work Football is the obvious centre. Not because […]

The petition, submitted to the ICC on 15 July and seen by Reuters, comes amid renewed anti-immigrant protests in South Africa that have, in some cases, turned violent. Protesters have accused migrants of contributing to challenges such as crime and unemployment. The petition alleges a “pattern of widespread and systematic attacks” against migrants in South Africa and accuses the government of President Cyril Ramaphosa of failing to prevent, […]
- [Africa's mobile betting revolution: How smartphones became the new bookmaker](https://africafeeds.com/2026/07/09/africas-mobile-betting-revolution-how-smartphones-became-the-new-bookmaker/): If you spend time following sports in Africa today, it is easy to see how much has changed in a relatively short period. A decade ago, placing a wager often involved traveling to a betting shop, waiting in line, then holding onto a printed ticket until the event ended; today, the experience looks very different, as millions of people can access betting platforms directly through their smartphones. Across the continent, growing internet access, wider smartphone ownership and stronger mobile networks have transformed how sports fans interact with bookmakers. According to GSMA’s Mobile Economy Africa 2025 report, 416 million Africans use mobile […]

A New Era Of Business Operations Modern POS solutions do a lot more than just take payment. Today’s POS solutions give you critical data about […]
- [How Mobile Access Changed Sports Betting Across Africa](https://africafeeds.com/2026/06/04/how-mobile-access-changed-sports-betting-across-africa/): More people across Africa now use phones as their main way of getting online. Football highlights, live scores, social media, streaming and messaging all happen on the same screen throughout the day. Sports betting followed once mobile internet became easier to access across different parts of the continent. A few years ago, online betting still relied much more on desktop browsing and internet cafés in some areas. Things started changing once cheaper smartphones became easier to buy and mobile internet access spread further. Betting apps and websites also started looking different because people were no longer sitting at computers for long […]
- [Founding of YouTube A Short History](https://africafeeds.com/2026/05/26/founding-of-youtube-a-short-history/): YouTube is one of the most influential platforms in modern media, but its origin story is surprisingly simple: a small team wanted an easier way to share video online. In the early 2000s, uploading and sending video files was slow, formats were inconsistent, and most websites weren’t built for smooth playback. YouTube’s founders focused on removing those barriers—making video sharing as easy as sending a link. Who Founded YouTube? YouTube was founded by three former PayPal employees: Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and Jawed Karim. They combined product thinking, engineering skills, and a clear user goal: create a website where anyone could upload […]
- [African leaders push for global reforms to unlock affordable credit](https://africafeeds.com/2026/05/12/african-leaders-push-for-global-reforms-to-unlock-affordable-credit/): African leaders are calling for major reforms to the global financial system, saying current structures make it too difficult and expensive for their countries to access credit needed for development and large-scale investments. The push came during the Africa Forward Summit in Kenya’s capital, Nairobi, where more than 30 African presidents, deputy presidents and prime ministers met with French President Emmanuel Macron. The two-day summit marks the first time France has hosted the Africa Forward initiative in an English‑speaking country, a move organisers say reflects a shift in engagement with the continent. Tackling Africa’s borrowing challenges African leaders argue that despite […]
- [Betting-Led Entertainment Platforms Are Changing Online Gambling in South Africa](https://africafeeds.com/2026/05/09/betting-led-entertainment-platforms-are-changing-online-gambling-in-south-africa/): SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za says South Africa’s online gambling market is moving into a new phase, as betting-led platforms expand beyond traditional sportsbook products and become broader digital entertainment destinations.  The trend is being driven by a market where sports betting now plays the leading role in gambling activity. The National Gambling Board’s audited statistics for the 2024/25 financial year show total gambling gross gambling revenue, or GGR, of R74.5 billion across casinos, betting, bingo and limited payout machines. Betting accounted for R52.0 billion, equal to 69.8% of total GGR, while casinos accounted for R16.6 billion, or 22.3%.  The same National Gambling Board data shows total gambling turnover of R1.5 trillion in 2024/25, with betting responsible for R1.13 trillion, or 75.0% of […]
- [The Future of Online Betting in SA: Less Generous, More Competitive](https://africafeeds.com/2026/05/09/the-future-of-online-betting-in-sa-less-generous-more-competitive/): South Africa’s online sports betting industry is entering a pivotal new phase. After years of rapid, mobile-driven growth, the sector is now facing increased regulatory scrutiny—most notably through the National Treasury’s proposed 20% national tax on gross gambling revenue (GGR).  The proposal, which closed for public comment in February 2026, is designed to both raise state revenue and address concerns around problem gambling. But its implications run far deeper. For operators, it introduces meaningful cost pressure. For punters, it could reshape the value of every bet placed online.  At its core, this is no longer just a tax debate—it’s about what the South […]

Although the formal process remains unchanged, selection by the Security Council followed by appointment by the General Assembly, the underlying political dynamics appear to be shifting in subtle but consequential ways. Most notably, the informal norms that have historically structured the selection process, including regional rotation, are showing signs of erosion. At the same time, major powers, particularly the United States, are placing greater emphasis on managerial competence and institutional performance. Taken together, these developments may expand the […]

- [Navigating South Africa's 2026 iGaming Shakeup](https://africafeeds.com/2026/04/04/navigating-south-africas-2026-igaming-shakeup/): Following a landmark Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) ruling and aggressive new directives from the National Gambling Board (NGB), the South African online gambling landscape has experienced its most dramatic shift in a decade. With local bookmakers now strictly barred from offering fixed-odds bets on casino games like roulette, a widespread regulatory “grey area” has been abruptly closed off. For thousands of South African players, this means their go-to platforms are rapidly changing, leaving a wave of confusion in their wake.  In response to this severe market disruption, SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za, the country’s leading independent casino review portal, has released a comprehensive 2026 […]

Addo, who was in charge of the Ghana national football team, was dismissed following a run of disappointing results, including underwhelming performances in recent international fixtures. Ghana lost against Germany and suffered a heavy defeat to Austria in recent friendlies, results that compounded their failure to qualify the Ghana national football team for AFCON 2025. The country’s FA said the decision followed a careful assessment of results and the team’s overall progress. ” The move  was in the best […]

Three countries, including the United States and Israel, voted against it, while 52 abstained, among them EU member states. Although not legally binding, the resolution carries significant political weight. Ghana argued that the motion […]

It offers speed, flexibility, and broad exposure, yet it also compresses risk into a form that can punish weak process very quickly. That tension explains why CFDs remain relevant for sophisticated traders in South Africa. They provide access to global instruments without requiring direct ownership of the underlying asset, and they allow traders to express short-term views with efficiency. At the same time, the structure demands precision. Margin use, execution quality, and broker controls matter far more than many newer traders first assume. For South African market participants, the conversation around […]

A young African American guy in a football jersey, barking at cameras, backflipping off cars and being chased by thousands of screaming fans through the streets of African cities. If you thought the IShowSpeed tour of Africa was just a viral moment, then you are gravely mistaken. It was, in fact, a cultural earthquake.
