Statistics South Africa rebased its national accounts, raising nominal GDP for last year to 8.04 trillion rand from 7.64 trillion, about 5% higher. The revision lifts South Africa's dollar-denominated GDP to roughly $483 billion, which the article compares with Nigeria's economy.
This is a statistical revision of past output, not a change in real supply or demand, so it has no direct effect on feed or commodity prices.
Not enough comparable past events yet for a historical read.
Moves of each commodity's benchmark from the last close before the event. Historical reads pool past events of the same kind; they describe what happened, not what will. Not investment advice.
