Coronavirus in Oklahoma: Gasoline prices push higher as demand begins to return, AAA reports

Gas prices for drivers across Oklahoma and the nation climbed over the past week. Nationally, the average cost of a gallon of gasoline Tuesday was $1.96, while in Oklahoma, drivers were paying an average of about $1.63 per gallon for fuel, AAA officials said. About a week ago, the national average for a gallon of gas was $1.88, while Oklahoma drivers were paying about $1.55 a gallon. Tuesday’s per-gallon averages, while up, still are dramatically lower than they were a year ago (87 cents lower nationally, and 92 cents in Oklahoma). Indeed, drivers over the Memorial Day holiday enjoyed the lowest fuel costs seen over that period since 2003, officials said Tuesday.

Museveni asks Ugandans to borrow from UDB for import substitution

President Yoweri Museveni has told Ugandans to borrow from Uganda Development Bank (UDB) and invest in import substitution projects. The President said the government recapitalized UDB to the tune of one trillion Ugandan shillings, with more funding expected to come from the World Bank and International Monetary Fund. He emphasized that Ugandans should borrow from the Bank and invest in import substitution economic activities. President Museveni was speaking at the commissioning of Lida Packaging Products Ltd., which produces medical and non-medical face masks located in Mbalala in Mukono District. Lida Packaging Products Ltd. is one of five manufacturers of face masks that have been certified by Uganda National Bureau of Standards (UNBS) and National Drug Authority (NDA).

RBZ increases gold retention threshold

THE Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) has increased the gold retention threshold to 70 percent in foreign currency for sale proceeds from the previous 55 percent in a move aimed at boosting production in the sector. Under the new gold trading framework, it means gold producers will now receive 30 percent of their gold sale proceeds to Fidelity Printers and Refiners (FPR) in local currency. FPR is the country’s sole gold buyer and operates under the purview of the Central Bank. In a statement, FPR general manager Mr Fradreck Kunaka said the new gold trading framework was with effect from yesterday. “Gold producers shall be paid under a 70/30 payment arrangement scheme in terms of which 70 percent of the gold sale proceeds shall be paid into the producer’s Nostro account and the balance of 30 percent shall be paid in local currency at the ruling exchange rate into the producer’s ZW$ account,” he said. Under the new framework, small-scale gold buying agents and artisanal producers shall be paid in cash at a flat price…

COMMENT: Africa’s collaboration in fight against Covid-19 commendable

THE 57th anniversary of Africa Day on Monday came at a time the continent and the entire world is grappling with Covid-19 and its effects it has had on the lives of the people as well as its economic impact on nations. Since the outbreak of the virus, African states have come together to share strategies on how to curb the spread of the virus and also on mitigation measures on the economies of the continent affected by virus. To date, more than 100 000 Covid-19 cases have been recorded across Africa with 40 000 recoveries and 3 000 deaths. Various meetings have been held between AU Heads of State and Government and a number of stakeholders including African business leaders and chairpersons of the regional economic communities (RECs) among others in a bid to come up with fortified responses to Covid-19. As a result of those interactions, AU chairperson and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has appointed Zimbabwean billionaire Mr Strive Masiyiwa to coordinate a private sector-led continental effort to procure…

First Mutual Life records investment loss

FIRST Mutual Life Holdings Limited has recorded an investment loss amounting to $392,8 million in the full year ended December 31, 2019 due to a decrease in value of equities listed on the stock exchange. In a statement accompanying financial results for the period under review, the group indicated that its total assets also declined by two percent compared to December 31, 2018. “The group had an investment loss of $392,8 million for the period under review compared to investment income of $207 million in 2018. “The loss was driven by decline in value on ZSE (Zimbabwe Stock Exchange) listed equities as the market index grew at a slower rate than inflation,” said the group. It attributed the decline in total assets to the loss of value on listed equities, the Zimbabwe dollar denominated bank balances and accounts receivables.

Motorists shun forex fuel

MOTORISTS in Bulawayo are shunning service stations which sell fuel in foreign currency and opting to fill their tanks from those charging in local currency as the exchange rate continues to shoot through the roof on the parallel market. Service stations selling in local currency are now three times cheaper than those charging in foreign currency, forcing some forex service stations to reduce their prices. As of yesterday, the exchange rate at the parallel market was US$1:ZW$60 via electronic transfers and US$1:45 for cash transactions. At selected service stations visited by a Chronicle news crew, forex fuel stations were selling petrol for between US$1,05 and US$1,25 while diesel was going for between US$1 and US$1,13. Those trading in local currency were charging between $21,76 and $23,30 for petrol while diesel was being sold for $21,59 and $22,55. Our news crew observed yesterday that there were long winding queues at most service stations selling the commodity in local currency.

Farmers trim livestock head amid dwingling pastures

FARMERS in parts of drought hit Midlands province have started disposing off their cattle as pastures decline due to the poor rains experienced in the 2019/2020 season. Communal farmers in areas like Gokwe North and South, Mberengwa and Chirumhanzu have been selling their cattle at below market price saying they cannot afford buying expensive stockfeed. The raging inflationary pressures and disruption of productive value chains, have deepened the plight of farmers.  Midlands crop and livestock production provincial officer, Mrs Medlinah Magwenzi, acknowledged the development and encouraged farmers to preserve feed for livestock in order to curb livestock deaths.
