Did government err in not being a little more reassuring in what the important announcement on Saturday was about?
In the current climate were they not guilty of being negligent in sending panic into the marketplace when in fact they could have provided some info to avoid unfounded panic?

Or was the market being too untrusting and overly sensitive to what it may hae been all about?

Surely somebody out there worth their "salt" could have picked up the significance of February 11 (i.e. Madiba's release from incarceration).
I never heard a single suggestion that the announcement might have something to do with his release.

Did the media fail us again or is this an unfair comment?
