Die ekonomie minuut episodes

November 05, 2024 Die verkiesing, die Fed, en wat dit beteken vir Suid-Afrika
Die Amerikaanse Presidentsverkiesing is aan die gang en dit lyk of nie veel stemme die wenner en verloorder gaan skei nie. Baie sê dit is ŉ verkiesing oor die ekonomie, maar verseker nie in die makro-ekonomiese sin nie, want dié vaar besonder goed. Suid-Afrikaners wil natuurlik weet wat hou ŉ Harris presidentskap of nog ŉ Trump presidentskap vir ons in.

November 05, 2024 The election cannot trump the Fed
The American presidential election is underway, and
it appears that only a small margin of votes will separate the winner and the loser. Many claim it’s an election about the economy, though not in a macroeconomic sense, as that is performing particularly well. South Africans naturally want to know what a Harris presidency or another Trump presidency holds for us.

November 04, 2024 Aanwysers
Na al die gepraat oor die MTBPS is daar vandag weer kans om op te vang met die aanwysers. Verlede week was daar Septembermaand se produsenteprys inflasiekoers en Oktober se aankopebestuurdersindeks
en nuwe voertuigverkope syfers.

November 01, 2024 Veranderingsbestuur vir die inflasiemikpunt
Een van die dinge waaroor die Minister van Finansies niks gesê het in Woensdag se MTBPS rede is, is die inflasiemikpunt. Hy het toe wel gister aan joernaliste gesê dat die Reserwebank ŉ voorstel gemaak het oor die inflasiemikpunt en dat ŉ komitee binne die Tesourie dit ondersoek.

November 01, 2024 How do you change manage the inflation target?
One of the things the Minister of Finance said nothing about in Wednesday's MTBPS speech is the inflation target. He then told journalists yesterday that the Reserve Bank had made a proposal about the inflation target and that a committee within the Treasury is investigating it.

October 31, 2024 Die Minister hou voet by stuk
Die Minister van Finansies het gister middag sterk standpunt ingeneem en duidelik gemaak dat hy volhou met die proses van fiskale konsolidasie om die begrotingstekort en staatskuld te stabiliseer. Hy het feitlik niks gesê oor BTW verligting, die brandstofprys, ekstra befondsing vir onderwys of gesondheidsposte nie en het dit duidelik gemaak dat hy nie die 4,7% verhogingsaanbod wat die Departement van
Openbare dienste en Administrasie aan staatsdiensvakbonde gemaak het, ondersteun nie.

October 31, 2024 The Minister takes a hard line
The Minister of Finance took a strong stance yesterday
afternoon and made it clear that he is continuing with the fiscal consolidation process to stabilize the budget deficit and government debt. He said virtually nothing about VAT relief, the fuel price, extra funding for education or health care positions and made it clear that he did not support the 4.7% wage increase offer the Department of Public Services and Administration made to civil service unions.

October 30, 2024 Waarna luister 'n ekonoom in die MTBPS?
Die Minister van Finansies sê gewoonlik baie in sy toesprake en dit is maklik om verlore te raak in al die syfers en moeilik om kop te hou oor watter boekjaar hy van praat. So hoe luister ŉ ekonoom na die mini-begrotingsrede?

October 30, 2024 What does an economist listen out for in the MTBPS?
The Minister of Finance usually says a lot in his speeches,
and it’s easy to get lost in all the numbers and hard to keep track of which financial year he is referring to. So, how does an economist listen out for in the mini-budget speech?
