JOHANNESBURG – Business confidence in South Africa declined in August from July, weighed down by concerns about the ailing economy, the South African Chamber of Commerce and Industry said on Wednesday.
SACCI’s business confidence index fell to 89.1 in August from 92.0 the previous month, and was the lowest it has been so far in 2019.
Seven of the thirteen sub-indices used in compiling the index deteriorated between July and August, while four improved and two were unchanged.
“Negative monthly movements occurred due to a decrease in merchandise export volumes, a weaker rand exchange rate weighted against major trading and investment currencies, and declining all-share prices on the Johannesburg Securities Exchange,” SACCI said.
It said while the South African economy had dodged a recession in the second quarter of 2019 with GDP growth of 3.1 percent after a contraction of the same magnitude in the first three months of the year, “it is not yet time to heave a sigh of relief”.
Video: APARTHEID: Why didnt White South Africans just slaughter MILLIONS of Blacks?
In this video we look at Apartheid in its proper context. Was Apartheid really intended to be VIOLENT? Were the Whites trigger-happy and keen to just slaughter Blacks in great massacres? Is the new South Africa more peaceful than under White rule?
