South African stocks with the highest share prices

When it comes to looking for something to invest in, share price is not usually a metric that people readily consider. And for good reason: unlike more fundamental metrics like revenue or net income, stock prices can be easily altered by changing the supply of the total shares in circulation. Stock splits are a very common example of this, where one share is divided into two or three or more shares so that the split price is viewed as more accessible to retail investors. Still if you like the idea of having one massively expensive share in your portfolio, then you'd better take a look at this following list of South African stocks.
