It was a tongue in cheek comment meant to hedge my bets (the part where I say "I'd be cautious")
So to "run" in this instance would be "up"... which is the generally excepted meaning. (i.e. "The price has run" ... meaning: it has increased significantly in a short space of time.)
Thanks for clarifying TBG - appreciate it
Further thoughts on the WHL acquisition:
Its a really big deal. Their market cap is about ~R60bn and the deal is about ~R21bn.
