\nThe FTSE\/JSE All Share closed last week at 63\u00a0661.02, decreasing by 0.44% during the week. Consumer Staples and Consumer Discretionary stocks were the biggest detractors decreasing by 3.87% and 1.87% respectively during the week. Oil and Gas stocks were the biggest contributors, increasing by 7.19% over the same period.<\/p>\n
\nThe US Consumer Confidence Index dropped during the course of September as some states are still struggling\u00a0to contain the spread of the Delta variant. The index dropped to 109.3 points, from a revised 115.2 points in August.<\/p>\n
\nSA producer price inflation rose by 7.2% year-on-year in August, from 7.1% previously. On a monthly basis, producer price inflation increased to\u00a00.8%, from 0.7% previously. The main drivers of annual inflation were petroleum, chemical, rubber, plastic\u00a0as well as food, beverage, and tobacco products. The index measures inflation based on the input costs to producers.<\/p>\n
\nThe price of\u00a0oil closed the week at $79.28 a barrel. Oil prices have risen over the past weeks due to supply disruptions and a rise in global demand, pushing the price above $80 during the week for the first time in 3 years.<\/p>\n\n\n
