Abstract:

The hash economic conditions in Zimbabwe, marred with perpetual cash cri-sis, little to no foreign direct investments (FDI's), high unemployment rates,absence of the Central Bank roles and local currency has piqued my intereststo study the long-run relationship of capital market indices and macroeco-nomic variables, in such conditions. The literature review analysed di?erentresearch work that were done in health economics about the same subjectbut with di?erent variable matrix structure and methods. Most of the stud-ies con?rmed the short/ long-run relationship between capital market indicesand macroeconomic variables.An ARDL method was employed on the subject matter, and interesting re-sults were obtained that are at variance with most of the existing empiricalresults in the literature. For example, most of the studies con?rmed a signi?-cant relationship between the exchange rate, interest rate and stock index butthis research showed otherwise. Moreover, this work ?lled the existing gap inthe literature on the relationship between the mining index and macroeco-nomics variables. Furthermore, it has been noted that consumer price indexand exchange rates have a negative long-run relationship with the miningindex. A way for further research of this nature in countries with the sameor similar economic conditions as of Zimbabwe has been set in motion andneeded for an abstract conclusions on the variations noted by this work.
