THE Zimbabwe Stock Exchange (ZSE) gained $90,72 billion in May as the benchmark All Share Index (ASI) put on 17 percent to close the month with year-to-date gains of 105 percent.
Market capitalisation grew by 15 percent to $646 billion, and the ASI closed at 5 428,28 points. The spike came as a shock after a slowdown that started in February, which saw monthly gains shrinking from 19 percent to 3,5 percent in April amid indications and growing sentiment that the market was getting back to “normalcy”.
