ZIMBABWE’S trade deficit stood at $380 million in January and February, narrowing from $466 million in the same period last year. Economic analysts say the trend reflects a relatively depressed domestic production, weak commodity prices and declining capacity to import. Figures released by the Zimbabwe Statistics Agency (Zimstat) last week reveal that the country imported goods valued $839 million in the first two months of the year compared to $459 million worth of exports in the same period.
