The Zimbabwe stock exchange ended the week on a rebound as it closed the week at $21.70 billion (+1.42%) The Standard reports. The publication believes that if able investors take advantage of new developments that saw  USD-denominated Savings Bonds, as well as the upward review of the Overnight Bank Rate from 50% to 70% being introduced, the bullish trend may persist for some time if investors respond positively.
