JANUARY 2024

TABLE OF CONTENTS


OVERVIEW
Annual headline inflation rose to 34.8% in
January 2024 from 26.5% in December 2023.
This was attributable to the depreciation of the
local currency against major currencies.


On a monthly basis, broad money increased by
54.63% in January 2024, compared to 7.3% in
the previous month. The increase in broad
money was largely attributable to valuation
changes arising from exchange rate movements
coupled with expansion in the quantum of
foreign currency deposits.


The Zimbabwe Stock Exchange (ZSE) was
bullish during the month of January 2024. The
All Share, Top 10, Top 15, Small Cap and
Medium Cap indices rose by 157.43%,
173.31%, 171.99%, 81.39% and 98.23%,
respectively.

The Victoria Falls Stock Exchange (VFEX)
continued to trade in a positive trajectory in
January 2024. The All-Share index increased
by 45.12% to close at 102.52 points, from 70.64
points registered in December 2023.


In value terms, transactions processed through
the National Payment Systems (NPS) increased
by 39% from ZW$42.05 trillion in December
2023 to ZW$58.35 trillion in January 2024.

NPS transactions volumes decreased by 9% to
64.97 million in the reporting month from
71.02 million in December 2023.

On the external front, export earnings for
January 2024 stood at US$540.3 million, up
26.3% compared to US$427.7 million in
January 2023, driven by gold, PGM and
tobacco exports. The country’s import bill for
January 2024 amounted to US$692.7 million,
up from US$633.8 million recorded in January
2023.

Average international prices of platinum,
palladium,
copper,
nickel,
and
lithium
declined, while gold and crude oil prices
registered increases in January 2024.

INTERNATIONAL COMMODITY PRICE
DEVELOPMENTS

During the month under review, platinum,
palladium, copper, nickel and lithium prices
declined. On the contrary, gold and crude oil
prices registered increases during the same
month.

Gold
Gold prices increased by 0.42%, from
US$2,026.06 per ounce reported in December
2023 to close at US$2,034.61 per ounce in

Platinum
Platinum prices declined by 1.47%, from an
average of US$939.74 per ounce in December
2023 to US$925.93 per ounce in January 2024.
The slowdown was largely attributable to
stockpiles of the metal, especially in China.

Palladium
Monthly
average
prices
for
palladium
continued in a negative trajectory, amid
reduced demand for the metal. Palladium prices
fell to US$979.52 per ounce in January from

US$1,003.49 per ounce recorded in December
2023. The price developments for precious
metals for the period from January 2021 to

Brent Crude Oil
Brent crude oil prices rose by 1.75%, from a
monthly average of US$77.69 per barrel
reported in December 2023 to US$79.05 per
barrel in January 2024. The increase was
underpinned by concerns over global energy
supply disruptions in several regions as
geopolitical tensions persist, coupled with
production cuts by some OPEC countries.

Brent crude oil prices for the period January
2021 to January 2024.

decreased by 0.07%, from US$8,464.18 per
tonne recorded in the prior month to
US$8,458.66
per
tonne.
Copper
prices
declined, following weak demand from China,
which dampened bullish supply pressures.

Nickel
Nickel prices fell by 1.93%, from a monthly
average of US$16,674.25 per tonne recorded in
December 2023 to US$16,352.41 per tonne,
during the month under analysis. Prices
retreated due to the increases in global supplies
amid rising inventories in China. Figure 3

period January 2021 to January 2024.

from US$17,200.12 per tonne in December

falling electric vehicle sales in China.
