So, what is needed on our part is to stabilise the exchange rate. > In terms of the stability of the exchange rate, the medium-to-long term is for us to produce. The stability of the exchange rate is on us being in a position to export. > But in the short-term, the movement in the exchange rate at the moment is due to a number of factors. One such factor is speculation and operations of the parallel market. > This is where we are now saying we want to bring some stability and formality in the trading of currency. A survey carried out by the Chronicle on Monday revealed that some shop workers in Bulawayo were busy removing old shelf prices replacing them with new pegs, a development reminiscent of the 2008 hyperinflationary period. Meanwhile, as of yesterday, the US dollar was trading at $42 from $40 last week on electronic transfers on the parallel market while it was at $39 on the official market. *More: Chronicle* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
