The rand has fallen towards year-to-date lows against the US dollar. In the view of economists at MUFG Bank, ZAR is vulnerable to further weakness in the coming months amid unfavourable external backdrop.
“Elevated energy and food prices are triggering demand destruction which is now starting to weigh down more on prices. At the same time, the rand has been undermined by ongoing hawkish repricing of Fed rate hike expectations.”
The Fed has delivered a much stronger policy signal that it will raise rates further into restrictive territory in order to dampen upside inflation risks even if it results in a more notable slowdown for the US economy. It is creating an unfavourable external backdrop for the rand which leaves it vulnerable to further weakness in the coming months.”
“The negative external backdrop has more than offset support for the rand from domestic developments. South Africa’s economy expanded more strongly at the start of this year by 1.9% in Q1 although worsening power shortages are currently increasing downside risks to growth. Inflation has also surprised to the upside jumping above the top of the SARB’s target band between 3.0% and 6.0% to 6.5% in May.”

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
