THE WEEK IN REVIEW

The EGP punches through the EGP 50 barrier

👋 Good morning, friends, and happy long weekend. We’ve got a full issue for you today — starting with The Enterprise Guide’s case for protecting your brain in the age of AI, which is either reassuring or alarming depending on how much you’ve used it this week. We also have Steven Spielberg back in sci-fi territory, a horror film that turned USD 750k into a USD 175 mn phenomenon, a new Greek spot in New Cairo, and a podcast for anyone who takes their music seriously.

But first, your weekly recap…

🗞️ LAST WEEK IN 3 MINS-

ECONOMY-

The USD fell below the psychological EGP 50 mark across several local banks on Wednesday for the first time since March, extending the EGP’s recovery as regional geopolitical friction eases and foreign currency liquidity strengthens. The greenback traded at EGP 49.96 (buy) and EGP 50.07 (sell) at state-owned NBE and Banque Misr, while the rate reached EGP 49.90 (buy) and EGP 50 (sell) at CIB. The appreciation was driven primarily by the exceptionally strong inflows recorded in the secondary market on Tuesday, with foreign portfolio investments rising by USD 1.1 bn — the largest single-day inflow since March.

AND- China extended its local-currency swap line with Egypt for three more years and lifted the ceiling 67% to CNY 30 bn (c. USD 4.43 bn) from CNY 18 bn. The expansion is coinciding with deepening commercial ties. As of November 2025, 2.8k Chinese companies have been active in Egypt, with over USD 8 bn invested.

ALSO- The government is fast-tracking corporate formation by introducing a temporary eight-month tax card. The draft legislation allows new companies to speed up their establishment and licensing procedures.

ENERGY-

Egypt agreed with QatarEnergy and ExxonMobil to receive and re-export gas from Cyprus’s Pegasus and Glaucus fields through Egyptian pipeline networks. The framework would see Egypt collect transit and processing fees. The two fields are targeting production of 1 bcf/d by 2030, with recoverable reserves estimated at 7 tcf.

AND- The military’s National Service Projects Organization is handing Taqa Arabia a 10% stake in 172 stations from Wataneya’s fuel network. The transaction parks the assets inside a new IPO-bound vehicle called Quick Fuel for Petroleum Products Trading and Distribution, which Taqa will now manage and operate.

ALSO- The EU is putting up EUR 690 mn to upgrade our electricity transmission network and integrate 22 GW of new renewable capacity into the grid by 2030. The agreement is the first concrete project under T-Med.

AUTOMOTIVE-

Chinese luxury EV maker Rox Global is expanding in the local market through a joint venture with Ezz El Arab Elsewedy Investments named Rox ESI Egypt. The new company will produce what its backers say is the first luxury electric vehicle manufactured in the country.

AND- Egypt’s automotive market cooled in April, falling to 15.3k units from 17.8k in March as it digested two months of pulled-forward demand. Buyers had front-loaded purchases through February and March to beat price hikes and Red Sea shipping disruptions, leaving April to absorb the correction.

PRIVATIZATION WATCH-

Some of the government’s longest-running privatization plays may finally be seeing daylight. Offers are in for military-owned bottled water maker Safi, and an IPO timeline has been set for the military’s new retail field vehicle Quick Fuel.

M&A-

The Transport Ministry is set to reject AD Ports’ mandatory tender offer to acquire up to 90% of Alexandria Container and Cargo Handling, a senior government official recently told us. The Emirati port operator offered EGP 27.47 per share last week to consolidate its control over the local maritime company.

DEBT WATCH-

Fintech platform Valu secured a EGP 600 mn loan from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development to finance household purchases of energy-efficient and renewable technologies. The facility aims to drive retail adoption of solar power and electric mobility.

🌍 AROUND THE WORLD IN SEVEN DAYS-

This week’s news cycle was dominated by two stories: the US-Iran peace agreement and SpaceX’s blockbuster public debut. Here’s the rundown:

The US and Iran reached an agreement on Sunday to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, with a signing ceremony set for Friday in Switzerland. The text of the MoU remains unpublished, though several news outlets have obtained the details .The agreement dominated G7 talks in France, where President Donald Trump warned that “hell will rain down” if Iran tries to develop a nuclear weapon. The UK, France, Germany, and Italy agreed in a joint statement that “Iran ‌must ⁠never acquire a nuclear weapon.”

Uncertainty remained over the Strait of Hormuz, with shipowners and oil traders expected to take weeks to confidently resume transit unless the agreement proves material. Oil prices hit a more-than-three-month low.

IN THE BUSINESS PRESS- SpaceX made its Nasdaq debut on 12 June, raising USD 75 bn in the largest IPO in history and closing its first trading day up 19%. The listing made Elon Musk the world’s first t’naire. By Tuesday’s close, SpaceX had pushed its market value to USD 2.66 tn, leapfrogging Amazon to become the world’s fifth-most valuable company, and also announced it will acquire Anysphere — the company behind AI coding agent Cursor — for USD 60 bn.

MEANWHILE- The UK carried out the first-ever operation of its kind against Russia’s “shadow fleet,” with British forces intercepting and boarding an oil tanker in the English Channel on Sunday. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer confirmed that Royal Marines and officers from the National Crime Agency took control of the vessel Smyrtos, which was sailing under the Cameroonian flag, during a six-hour operation.

ALSO- Starmer announced plans to ban social media access for under-16s and introduce tighter rules for gaming and livestreaming platforms. Starmer outlined a crackdown targeting social media platforms, including TikTok, Instagram, and Snapchat, alongside gaming services that allow children to interact with strangers online.

Your brain called… it wants its job back

🧠 Who doesn’t love a shortcut? AI gives us exactly that — it handles deep thinking, answers every question we can throw at it, and completes complex tasks in seconds. Used well, it’s an asset for research and the more repetitive parts of work. But leaning on it daily over a long period may quietly cost us something pivotal: our ability to think critically and creatively. In this week’s edition of The Enterprise Guide, we’re focusing on the habits and practices that can keep your mind sharp — particularly around critical thinking, creativity, and memory.

The brain is a muscle — and it needs the workout

Have you ever written your grocery list on paper instead of just trying to remember it? Used a calculator to split the bill after dinner with friends? This is called cognitive offloading — the practice of relieving the burden on our memory and minds by outsourcing to external tools.

… And it’s a double-edged sword. While this boosts short-term efficiency and clears up mental bandwidth for more complex problems, it carries a real risk: we tend to delegate mental tasks based on a flawed self-assessment of our own abilities — offloading based on what we think our memory can't handle, rather than what it actually can't.

The cost of getting this wrong is significant. Research shows that over-reliance on technology can weaken memory — a phenomenon known as the Google effect — and even extends to a measurable reduction in grey matter, which plays a key role in processing information and cognition. A 2025 study by researchers from CMU, Oxford, MIT, and UCLA found that participants performed significantly worse and gave up more frequently once AI access was removed — after just 10 minutes of AI-assisted problem-solving.

Since AI has already worked its way into both our professional and personal lives, here are some practices and habits that can help keep your mental capabilities and creativity intact.

At work or in your studies

#1- Plan before you prompt: When using AI to complete a task, remember that you’re the one in the driver’s seat. Set your objectives and outline the key elements you need before turning to the technology — so that AI accelerates execution rather than replacing the thinking and planning that should be yours.

#2- Treat AI output as a first draft, not a final product: Approach any text or ideas generated by AI as raw material that needs refining. This keeps your critical thinking engaged, ensures the final product meets the quality and accuracy you need, and stops you from settling for the first answer you’re handed.

#3- Use AI to stress-test your ideas: Try using a chatbot as a sparring partner — ask it to argue the opposite position or critique a specific idea. It’s a useful way to sharpen your analytical skills and your ability to build and dismantle a logical argument.

#4- Brainstorm first: If you work in a creative field or you’re a writer, AI can help you develop ideas — but carve out time first to find your own inspiration, from the world around you, before you write anything down. This protects your creative instincts and keeps the technology in its proper role: expanding and developing ideas, not replacing the spark that starts them.

Work hard, play hard

#1- Brain games: Something many of us have quietly dropped: the logic puzzles we used to do in print magazines and newspapers. Games that rely on reasoning — sudoku, crosswords — play a meaningful role in activating short-term memory and improving the brain’s processing speed, helping to delay the cognitive decline that comes with age. You’ll find sudoku and crossword books at varying difficulty levels at bookshops like Diwan, and board games such as Sequence are a solid option too — good for focus, and fun with family and friends.

#3- Read, read, and read: One of the most enduring habits across every era, reading remains a cornerstone of keeping the mind sharp, preserving creativity, and opening new avenues for thought. It doesn’t matter whether you prefer literary fiction, self-help, or opinion journalism — reading is valuable in itself. Medical research shows that engaging with long-form text strengthens neural connections and activates the brain’s centers for comprehension and imagination. Among Gen Z in particular, Substack has emerged as a destination for exactly this — a space for long-form writing and detailed essays that many see as an antidote to the brain rot that comes with social media and fast-consumption content.

#3- Meditate: Setting aside even a few minutes a day to clear your mind does more than reduce stress — it also strengthens concentration and attention in a working environment full of digital distractions, giving the brain a chance to reorganize its priorities. Brief moments of stillness create space to think about the world around you more slowly — and that tends to feed both curiosity and creativity.

#4- Seek real human conversation: Going for a walk with a friend, debating a film, or talking through a genuinely contested question — these things sharpen attention and open new lines of thinking. Put the phones away and give your full attention to the conversation. It’s one of the better things you can do for a brain that spends too much of its time processing digital content and instant answers.

Daily habits

#1- The one-minute rule: When you can’t remember a name or a specific detail, resist the immediate impulse to search. Give your brain a minute to retrieve it on its own. This simple exercise strengthens memory pathways and guards against digital memory loss — the phenomenon that develops when the brain grows accustomed to the ease of outsourcing information storage.

#2- Freewriting: Set aside time to write without structure or purpose. No agenda, no goal. It relieves performance pressure and encourages a freeflow of ideas — opening up new creative pathways and helping to break through mental blocks, those moments when original thinking simply won’t come.

#3- A morning fast from your phone: Staying off your phone for at least the first 30 minutes after waking helps the brain transition smoothly from sleep to wakefulness. Instead of immediately flooding your mind with information that can raise stress levels and scatter your attention before the day has properly started, use that window to plan your day or ease into an activity that puts you in a state of focus and intention.

Disclosure Day is a Spielberg sci-fi adventure with stellar performances

📽 Steven Spielberg has spent decades making audiences question what lies beyond the familiar, and Disclosure Day sees the legendary filmmaker return to the sci-fi genre with a story built around humanity’s search for answers. The result is a visually ambitious mystery filled with Spielberg’s signature sense of wonder — even if the journey occasionally feels longer than it needs to be.

The plot: The film follows Margaret (Emily Blunt), whose life is upended after a strange encounter leaves her questioning everything she knew. She finds herself connected to Dr. Daniel Kellner (Josh O’Connor), a researcher racing to uncover what’s been hidden from humanity for decades. Around them circle Wardex CEO Noah Scanlon (Colin Firth), who wants to control the situation, and Hugo Wakefield (Colman Domingo), a former Wardex operative turned whistleblower. As a government conspiracy unravels, the characters grapple with questions of morality and the limits of what humanity is meant to know — with Spielberg choosing mystery over explanation from the start.

What we liked: The strongest element of Disclosure Day is Emily Blunt’s performance. Margaret gives the film its emotional center, balancing fear, confusion, and determination in a way that keeps the audience invested. Her performance makes the mystery feel personal rather than just another big sci-fi event. Colin Firth is another standout, bringing a quiet intensity to Scanlon, while Josh O’Connor delivers a committed performance as Daniel. The chemistry between the characters helps carry the film through some of its slower moments.

The film succeeds when it embraces the unknown. Those early scenes where viewers are trying to understand what is happening are some of its most effective, creating the kind of curiosity that classic sci-fi thrives on.

What we didn’t like: Unfortunately, Disclosure Day struggles with its own runtime. At times, the film feels like it has too much to say. Some conversations and slower moments drag the story down, making a tighter edit feel like it could have strengthened the overall experience. The dialogue also occasionally falls into familiar sci-fi territory, with certain emotional speeches feeling more dramatic than natural. The final stretch may leave some viewers wishing the film had trusted its strongest moments and ended sooner.

The verdict: Disclosure Day is a classic Spielberg sci-fi experience: big ideas, impressive performances, and a mystery designed to make audiences think. It does not always maintain its momentum, but standout performances and the film’s sense of discovery make it an entertaining ride for sci-fi fans.

WHERE TO WATCH- Disclosure Day is showing at Vox Cinemas at City Center Almaza, Mall of Egypt, and City Center Alexandria. The film is also screening at City Stars Cinema, Cima Arkan, D5 and CFC’s Scene Cinema, and P90. Watch the trailer on YouTube (watch, runtime: 2:43).

Still haven’t watched Obsession yet? This is your cue

🍿 What if your wildest dreams came true? Obsession explores this very question against a dark, gory backdrop. With a budget of just USD 750k, the horror film by 26-year-old director Curry Barker has taken the internet by storm, raking in over USD 175 mn in the US alone. The movie stars faces that belie its low budget through new and welcome additions to the horror genre, each delivering stellar performances.

The plot: Bear (Michael Johnston), a lonely, unconfident man in his 20s, uses a store-bought wish in a desperate attempt to make his crush, Nikki (Inde Navarette), fall in love with him. After his wish comes true, Nikki becomes mindlessly obsessed with him — hence the title. The film explores themes of autonomy, consent, and loneliness, further emphasized through its eerie and discomfiting tone.

What we liked:Beyond its fictional premise, Obsession dissects the very real reality of the loss of one’s autonomy — which is the true horror depicted. Barker uses a fictional lens to explore the psychological turmoil of a lack of consent, as the real Nikki fights to regain control of her body, apathetically ignored by Bear. The film’s strength lies in its ability to bring such a complex issue to light through the use of fiction and horror.

Our only gripe — and our verdict: The pacing at times proved repetitive and slow. While it could be argued that the slow build-up provided necessary exposition, Barker could have utilized other elements to better engage his audience. While Obsession can simply be a thriller enjoyed on your next movie night, it also provides a thought-provoking look into deeper subject matter. The movie will have you laughing at the sheer absurdity of some scenes, while screaming in frustration at others. This new horror is not to be missed.

💡 Friendly tip: Obsession contains scenes of graphic violence, gore, and disturbing imagery that may be unsettling for some viewers.

WHERE TO FIND IT- You can watch Obsession at Vox Cinemas at City Center Almaza, Mall of Egypt, and City Center Alexandria. The film is also screening at City Stars Cinema, Cima Arkan, Scene Cinema, and P90. Watch the trailer on YouTube (watch, runtime: 2:14).

What do you do when you find your passion too late?

📚 Jordanian writer Maan Abu Taleb uses the boxing ring as a metaphor for a divided city and for existence itself in his debut novel All The Battles — delivering a story about far more than boxing. It’s a sharp reading of identity, social privilege, the existential fractures of contemporary life, and a rare break from the elegies and didactic politics of much contemporary Arabic fiction.

The plot: Saed Habjouqa is a man in his 30s of Circassian descent living in Amman. On the surface, he has everything his social class is supposed to want — a stable life, a promising career, a comfortable climb up the professional ladder. Then he discovers boxing. What starts as a passing curiosity deepens into genuine passion, pulling him toward a modest club in one of the city’s eastern neighborhoods and into a world entirely unlike the one he has always known. He ends up torn between two lives, two versions of himself — inside the ring and out.

What we liked: The novel’s greatest strength is its use of boxing as a lens for the human condition. Abu Taleb asks a question worth sitting with: what happens when you discover your real passion years into building a life that points the other way — do you have the courage to start again, or do you cling to the familiar out of fear? He offers no easy answers and wisely keeps his distance from the superhero archetype. His protagonist is an ordinary human being, full of fear, hesitation, and doubt.

Amman functions as a character in its own right. Abu Taleb draws on the well-known social and geographic divide between east and west Amman — not as a political thesis, but as lived experience. Between the bourgeois neighborhoods where Saed navigates his advertising career and the packed training halls across town, he sketches a precise portrait of the class differences that shape people, define their futures, and set the ceiling on their expectations. Direct, unpretentious prose — no literary performance, no labored description — lets the colloquial terms do their work.

Our verdict: The ending stumbles, but the novel remains a distinctive piece of work. Its real power lies in its distance from victory or defeat in any conventional sense: All The Battles is about the quieter fights every person wages with themselves, and that’s precisely why it lands even for readers who have never laced up a pair of boxing gloves.

WHERE TO FIND IT- You can find the book at the AUC bookstore and Diwan.

Is The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill worth a visit?

🥙 When we first found out that a new Greek spot had set up shop in New Cairo, we had two thoughts: the first being, “Opa!” and the second being, “We have to go try this.” Off we went. Located at Regent’s High Street outside of New Cairo’s Regents Park compound, The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill — a franchise of a Las Vegas chain born from a family business in 2015 — promises good ol’ authentic Greek classics… but does it deliver?

First things first, here’s what to expect. The restaurant offers a casual dining experience, with a cozy indoor setup and a breezy outdoor dining area along High Street. We found our way to a table cleverly decorated with both Greek and Egyptian flags, and our friendly server handed us a pair of laminated double-sided menus. Speaking of, you’ll find gyros, “Athenian burgers,” souvlakis, traditional Greek mezze — including tzatziki, naturally — salads, and a few enticing dessert options.

What we liked: We opted for dolmades (stuffed vine leaves), a chicken gyro, a beef gyro, feta fries, and lemon potatoes — as well as two machine sodas to down it all. The food took around 20 minutes to arrive, and we didn’t wait a minute more to dig in. Despite arriving somewhat lukewarm, both gyros were delicious. The tzatziki was a little on the tangy side, but we didn’t mind. Beef and chicken were both melt-in-your-mouth tender, and we thoroughly enjoyed them. The feta fries and the lemon potatoes proved to be the perfect sides, with the latter taking the cake.

What we didn’t like: The dolmades were out of the running one bite in. The vine leaves were oddly chewy and left a peculiar aftertaste, which we flagged to our server. A bit of back and forth later to determine what the culprit may have been, it became clear that the vine leaves used were of the canned sort.

The verdict: If you’re looking for a quick, casual Greek-style lunch or light dinner in a low-stakes setting, we’d say The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill is worth your time. Despite a hiccup with the dolmades, everything else was done right. If you’re looking for a more elevated Greek dining experience, then you might want to sit this one out.

WHERE TO FIND IT- You can find The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill at Regent’s High Street in New Cairo. You can also order through Talabat.

What to expect: Music broadcasters and hosts Nick Grimshaw and Annie Macmanus bring their music obsession and easygoing chemistry to the show. The pair discuss new album releases, live performances, celebrity news, throwback records, and just about everything else in the pop music universe, alongside occasional musical guest interviews. As longtime friends off-air, their natural banter, personal anecdotes, and relaxed conversations are truly what define the podcast.

During one episode, the hosts get into Madonna’s latest and much-anticipated release and Coachella appearance.

Nick and Annie sprinkle their conversations with references that only true music aficionados are likely to catch.
