Idatha yakamuva, ehlaziya umthamo wezindiza zomhlaba wonke, ukusesha izindiza kanye nokuthengwa kwezindiza okungaphezulu kwezigidi ezingu-17 ngosuku, iveza ukuthi ngo-2019 ukukhula kohambo lwendiza lwamazwe ngamazwe, njengoba kulinganiswa ngohambo lwabagibeli, kukhule ngo-4.5%. Lokho kungaphambi kokukhula komnotho emhlabeni jikelele, kodwa ukukhula kancane kakhulu kunonyaka odlule, ngama-6.0%; futhi ihamba kancane kunenkambiso kule minyaka eyishumi edlule, enesilinganiso esingu-6.8% ngonyaka. Kodwa-ke, umbono wezinyanga ezintathu ezizayo unethemba elikhulu, ngokubhukha indiza yamazwe ngamazwe njengoba ku-1^st NgoJanuwari 2020 bemi ngo-8.3% ngaphambi kwalapho bebekhona ekuqaleni kuka-2019.

U-Olivier Ponti, i-VP Insights, i-ForwardKeys, ubeke amazwana: “Imvamisa, ezondiza zikhula cishe ngamaphesenti amathathu ngaphambi kwe-GDP yomhlaba. Nokho, onyakeni odlule, sibone izehlakalo ezimbalwa ezibambezele ukukhula; lezi zihlanganisa izingxabano zezohwebo zase-US neCanada, iChina, iMexico kanye ne-EU, izibhelu eChile, eFrance, eHong Kong naseNdiya, ukumiswa kwendiza entsha i-Boeing 737 Max, ubushokobezi eSri Lanka, ukuvela 'kwehlazo lokundiza' kanye ukuqothuka kweJet Airways.”

Ngenkathi ukuhamba ngendiza kwanda ezingxenyeni eziningi zomhlaba ngo-2019, kwaba khona okuhlukile okuphawulekayo; ukusuka emazweni ngamazwe ukusuka eMpumalanga Ephakathi kwehle ngo-2.4%. Imbangela enkulu yalokhu kwaba ukuqothuka kweJet Airways, okube nomthelela wokunciphisa umthamo wendiza phakathi kweMpumalanga Ephakathi neNdiya. Ukuhamba phakathi kwamazwe aseMpumalanga Ephakathi kukhule ngo-0.7% ngenkathi ukuya kwezinye izingxenye zomhlaba kwehle ngo-3.9%.

Isifunda esivelele mayelana nokukhula kwezindiza zamazwe ngamazwe ngo-2019 kwakuyi-Asia Pacific, lapho ukuhamba kwamanye amazwe kukhule ngo-7.7%, okubonisa ukukhula okuqinile komnotho walesi sifunda. Ukuhamba phakathi kwamazwe esifundeni sase-Asia Pacific kukhule kakhulu, ngo-8.7%. I-Europe yenze kahle kakhulu njengendawo okuyiwa kuyo, ibhalise ukukhula ngo-11.7% emakethe yase-Asia Pacific, okuthuthukiswe imizila emisha, kulandela unyaka oyimpumelelo wezokuvakasha we-EU-China.

Isifunda esiphume isibili kwaba yi-Afrika. Lapho, uhambo lwamazwe ngamazwe lukhule ngo-7.5%. Abashayeli ababaluleke kakhulu kwaba ukwenyuka komthamo kanye nemizila ye-Ethiopian Airlines - umthamo phakathi kwe-Addis Ababa ne-Delhi, i-Guangzhou, i-Jakarta, i-Manila ne-Seoul, kanye nezindiza ezintsha eziya e-Bangalore zisuka e-Addis naseNew York zisuka e-Abidjan. Ezinye izinkampani zezindiza nazo zengeze imizila yase-Afrika, okuhlanganisa i-Air China phakathi kweGoli ne-Shenzhen, i-China Southern phakathi kweNairobi ne-Shenzhen, i-Kenya Airways phakathi kwe-Nairobi ne-New York, i-LATAM Airlines phakathi kwe-Johannesburg ne-Sao Paulo kanye ne-Royal Air Maroc phakathi kwe-Casablanca ne-Boston ne-Miami.

Isifunda esiphume endaweni yesithathu kwaba yiMelika, lapho uhambo oluya emazweni angaphandle lukhule ngo-4.8%. Ukuhamba phakathi kwamazwe akulesi sifunda kukhule ngo-3.2%. Ukusebenza okuphawulekayo kwaba ukukhula kohambo oluya kwezinye izifunda zomhlaba, obelukhuphuke ngo-6.8%, lusizwa amandla aqhubekayo edola, ukuxhumana okusha ezindaweni eziningi zomhlaba kanye nokutholwa kwe-Egypt neTurkey njengendawo okuyiwa kuyo.

Uhambo oluphuma emazweni aseYurophu lukhule ngo-3.7%. Ukuhamba phakathi kwamazwe ase-Europe kukhule ngo-3.3% kanti ukuya kwamanye amazwekazi kukhule ngo-5.5%.

Uma sibheka ikusasa, isithombe sembulunga yonke singcono kakhulu; kanti i-Afrika iyimakethe ehamba phambili. Njengoba ku-1^st NgoJanuwari, ukubhuka kwamanye amazwe kungaphezulu ngo-12.5%, ngo-10.0% kwamanye amazwe ase-Afrika futhi kudlule ngo-13.5% emhlabeni wonke. Njengendawo okuyiwa kuyo, i-Afrika nayo kulindeleke ukuthi yenze kahle, njengoba ukubhuka kwamanye amazwekazi njengamanje kuhamba ngo-12.9%.

Imakethe ephumayo yesibili ethembisa kakhulu yi-Europe, ngokubhukha kwamanye amazwe phambili kwekota yokuqala ngo-10.5% ngaphambili. Ukubhuka phakathi kwamazwe aseYurophu kungaphambili ngo-9.6% kanti ukubhukha kwamanye amazwekazi kungaphambili ngo-11.8%.

Endaweni yesithathu, yi-Asia Pacific, lapho ukubhukha amazwe ngamazwe kungaphezu kuka-8.3%. Phakathi kwamazwe angaphakathi kwesifunda, ukubhukha kungaphambili ngo-7.7% kanti ukubhukha okude kungaphambili ngo-9.7%.

Ukuqina okuqhubekayo kwedola kubonakala kungumshayeli walokho okwenzeka emazweni aseMelika, lapho ukubhukha izindiza zamazwe ngamazwe kungaphambili ngo-4.7%. Lapho, ukubhukha okuya kwamanye amazwe angaphakathi kweMelika kuhamba phambili ngo-1.7% kodwa kudlule ngo-8.8% kwamanye amazwekazi.

Umbono wokuhamba eMpumalanga Ephakathi usuqala ukubukeka kahle. Ikota yokuqala yamazwe ngamazwe, ukubhukha okuya phambili kuku-2.2% ngaphambi kwalapho bebeku-1^st Januwari 2019. Phakathi kwamazwe angaphakathi kwesifunda, ukubhukha kungaphezu kuka-6.8% kodwa ukubhukha okude kuhamba phambili ngo-0.4%. Kodwa-ke, idatha ye-ForwardKeys ibikezela kusengaphambili ukubulawa kwe-USA kuka-Qasem Soleimani, umcimbi ongashintsha umbono wohambo, ikakhulukazi uma isimo sezombusazwe siba sibi nakakhulu.

U-Olivier Ponti, i-VP Insights, i-ForwardKeys, uphethe ngokuthi: “Ukuhamba ngekota yokuqala ka-2020 kubukeka kuzojabulisa, ngohambo olude olukhombisa ukukhula okunamandla kunohambo lwangaphakathi kwesifunda. Lezi yizindaba ezikhuthazayo embonini njengoba abantu beqhubeka behamba, bavame ukusebenzisa imali eningi. ”
