Summary:This paper analyzes the general relationship between stock prices and macroeconomic variables in Zimbabwe, and examines how well macroeconomic variables explain recent movements in stock prices. Two consecutive excellent harvests and large inflows of foreign capital have boosted the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange (ZSE) since 1995, which now has become the second biggest market in Africa after the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. However, market liberalization policies seem to have changed the arbitrage relationship between stock returns and returns on other assets and goods, and sharp increases in stock prices in 1996 have caused some concern among foreign investors.
