Executive Summary

Old Mutual (OMU) is trading at ZAc 1,302, comfortably below its 20‑day (1,324.85), 50‑day (1,367.88) and 200‑day (1,407.25) simple moving averages, signalling a short‑term bearish bias. The RSI sits at 42, indicating neither overbought nor oversold conditions, while the MACD histogram has turned positive (≈3.9) suggesting a nascent bullish momentum despite the MACD line still lagging the signal.
Fundamentally, the stock appears undervalued with a trailing P/E of 6.85 versus an industry average of 16.75 and a DCF‑derived fair value implying roughly 17% upside. Revenue is growing at ~20% YoY, free cash flow is robust at ZAc 76.8 bn, and the dividend yield of 7.14% is supported by a modest payout ratio (~47%). These factors combine to make OMU an attractive value‑oriented play with solid income potential.
