SELECTED ECONOMIC INDICATORS

INTERNATIONAL COMMODITY PRICE
DEVELOPMENTS

During the month of June 2021, international
monthly average prices for gold, nickel and
Brent crude oil firmed. However, copper and
platinum prices retreated.

Precious Metals

Gold
Gold prices were relatively steady, rising by a
marginal 0.02%, from a monthly average of
US$1,845.96 per ounce in the previous month,
to US$1,846.27 per ounce, during the month
under review. The slight rise in bullion prices
was largely on account of prospects of strong
safe haven demand for the yellow metal, amid
growing concerns about a spike in Covid-19
infections.

Platinum
Platinum prices eased by 6.9%, from an average
of US$1,215.85 per ounce in May 2021, to
U$1,131.82 per ounce in June 2021. This was
largely due to slackening industrial demand,
particularly in China. The Asian giant’s
economy announced plans to cut demand for
commodities in order to contain raw material
costs, amid inflation fears. Figure 1 shows the
evolution of precious metal prices for the period
from June 2020 through to June 2021.

Base Metals

Copper
Copper prices retreated by 5.0% to a monthly
average of US$9,667.28 per tonne, from
US$10,172.20 per tonne recorded in the
previous month. Prices declined following the
strengthening of the US dollar and signs of
waning demand in China, the metal’s top
consumer.

Nickel
Nickel prices further strengthened on investor
optimism about global economic recovery,
though volumes traded remained low because of
investor concerns about sluggish demand in
China. In addition, proposed Russian taxes on
nickel exports and strong demand in the spot
market by alloy makers strengthened prices. The
price of the base metal increased by 1.6%, to
close the month under review at an average of
US$17,883.38 per tonne, from an average of
US$17,599.30 per tonne in the previous month.

Brent Crude Oil
Brent crude oil prices remained buoyant during
the month under analysis, supported by bullish
signals from the Organisation of Petroleum
Exporting Countries (OPEC), following the
group’s
decision
to
continue
curtailing
production in order to shore up prices. In
addition, falling crude oil inventories in the US,
the world’s largest economy, also supported
prices. As a result, prices rose by 7.4%, from a
monthly average of US$68.16 per barrel
recorded in May 2021, to an average of
US$73.20 per barrel in June 2021.

MERCHANDISE
TRADE
DEVELOPMENTS

Total merchandise trade rose by 6.7%, from
US$994.3 million in May to US$1,060.6 million
in June 2021. Increases in both merchandise
exports and imports underpinned the rise in total
merchandise trade, during the month under
review. On a year- on- year basis, total
merchandise trade rose by a marked 43.9%,
from US$737.1 million recorded in the
corresponding month in 2020.

Merchandise Exports

The country’s merchandise exports increased by
3.2%, from US$487.0 million in May to
US$502.5 million in June 2021. Compared to

The country’s export earnings were driven by
the platinum group metals at US$238.6 million;
gold, US$141.5 million; ferro-chrome, US$28.2
million; and tobacco, US$23.1 million, during
the month under review. Firming global
commodity prices also boosted the country’s
exports. Table 1 shows developments in the
country’s exports for the months of May and
June 2021, respectively.

Merchandise Imports

Merchandise imports increased by 10.0%, from
US$507.3 million in May 2021 to US$558.1
million in June 2021. Similarly, imports for the
reporting month were 37.0% higher than in the

Figure 6.


Figure 6: Merchandise Imports classified by
HS Codes 2020 & 2021 (US$ m)

During the month under review, the country’s
imports were dominated by imports of fertilisers
(8.5%), diesel (4.9%) and crude soybean oil
(4.2%). The procurement of Covid-19 vaccines
also contributed to the growth of the country’s
import bill. However, import growth was
somewhat moderated, as domestic electricity
generation improved and food self- sufficiency
was achieved. Table 2 shows imports of major
commodities for the months of May and June
2021.

Merchandise Trade Balance

The
country’s
monthly
trade
balance
significantly widened, from a deficit of US$20.3
million in May to a deficit of US$55.5 million
in June 2021. This was on account increases in
imports relative to exports. Figure 8 shows the
country’s trade balance for the period from

During the month of June 2021, broad money
(M3) increased by 7.57% to ZW$302.93 billion,
from ZW$281.61 billion recorded in May 2021.

of broad money grew by 131.59%, from
ZW$57.70 billion in June 2020 to ZW$133.63
billion in June 2021. The increase partly
reflected

changes,
owing
to

growth in broad money in June 2021 compares
with 575% in June 2020.
On a month-on-month basis, domestic credit
increased by 7.22% to ZW$170.18 billion. The
growth was largely driven by an increase of
10.87% in credit to the private sector. Partially
offsetting the increase was a decline of 21.07%
in net claims to Government.
Credit to the private sector was mainly extended
towards
agriculture,
31.18%;
households,
17.06%; distribution, 12.48%; manufacturing,
10.79%; financial organisations, 11.02%; and
services, 7.88%; as shown in Figure 10.

capital investment, 18.10%.

INFLATION OUTTURN

Annual Inflation

Annual inflation fell to 106.64% in June 2021,
from 161.91% in May 2021. The slow- down in
annual inflation was attributable to declines in
both food and non-food inflation.
Annual food inflation fell from 161.91% in May
2021 to 108.64% in June 2021. This followed
the improvement in food supply, due to the good
20/21 agricultural season.
Year-on-year
non-food
inflation
also
decelerated to 105.12% in June 2021, from
150.75% in May 2021.
Annual blended CPI inflation3 slowed down to
40.91% in June 2021, from 94.70% in April
2021 and 74.57% in May 2021.

Monthly Inflation

The ZW$ monthly inflation stood at 3.88% in
June 2021, up from 2.54% in May 2021. The
acceleration in month- on- month inflation,
followed increases in both food and non-food
inflation.
Monthly food inflation increased from 0.95% in
May 2021 to 3.21% in June 2021. Month-on-
month non-food inflation also rose from 3.75%
in May 2021 to 4.38% in June 2021. The trend
in month-on-month inflation is shown in Figure
