South Africa’s unemployment rate shot up to 33.5% in Q2 2024 well above expectations. Youth unemployment up to 60.8%, despite an improvement in electricity. Employment fell 92 000 in the quarter, while unemployment rose by 158 000. Remains SA’s most important economic challenge

US employment below expectations in April at a gain of 175 000, with unemployment rate up to 3.9% and wage growth slower. Good news for markets. Dollar weakening. This is perfect Goldilocks data, despite the disappointing ECI data earlier in the week

SA Reserve Bank decided to leave the Repo rate unchanged at 8.25%. This was expected. The Reserve Bank flagged the upside risks to inflation. Any rate cut this year is likely only in the second half of this year.

SA retail sales rose by 0.4%m/m in Nov 2023, but down almost 1% compared with Nov 2022. In other words Black Friday was disappointing compared with the prior year. For 2023 as a whole SA retail activity is likely to have declined by more than 1% reflecting the tough environment

SA Minister of Finance announced a tax revenue shortfall of R56.8 billion for 2023/24 mostly due to a R35.8 billion shortfall in corporate tax and a R25.6 billion shortfall in VAT collection. Fortunately personal income tax is ahead of budget, rising by R6.4 billion above budget

According to information released by the IIF today, global debt has risen to a massive $307 trillion, a record high. Global debt has increased by $100 trillion over the past 10 years, with more than 80% of the increase driven by the major economies namely US, Japan, UK and France

SA GDP grew by an improved 0.6% in Q2 2023, helped by manufacturing and mining (less load shedding) and financial services. Unfortunately, retail activity declined reflecting higher interest rates, while transport and construction also contracted. SA struggling to gain momentum
