In today\u2019s issue, we\u2019re taking a deep dive into the <strong>Artemis II Lunar Flyby mission<\/strong>, how the internet\u2019s been reacting, and what a \u201clunar economy\u201d would entail. Also, we review<strong> the fifth and final season of The Boys<\/strong>, which kicked off with a bang.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>**A QUICK PROGRAMMING NOTE<\/strong>- EnterprisePM will be taking a long weekend break as we celebrate Sham El Nessim and <strong>will be back in your inboxes on Tuesday afternoon<\/strong>.

Monthly inflation rose to 3.2%, according to Capmas.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>The reading beat consensus estimates, fueled by a c.16% spike in domestic fuel prices and a 21.6% jump in vegetable costs<\/strong>, which HC\u2019s Neamat Choukri attributed to the war-induced surge in global energy prices and a c.12% monthly depreciation of the EGP to EGP 54.56\/USD.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>What\u2019s next: <\/strong>While analysts expect upcoming electricity tariff hikes to sustain momentum in April, there is a growing consensus that the CBE will keep its easing cycle on ice through this period of heightened uncertainty. Thndr\u2019s Esraa Ahmed expects that policymakers will likely hold rates steady until the \u201creal cost of the Iran war\u201d can be fully assessed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">THE BIG STORY ABROAD-<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\">\ud83c\udf10 <strong>The US-Iran two-week ceasefire is off to a rocky start<\/strong> \u2014 Iran accused Washington of violating their agreement after Israel launched a <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2026\/04\/09\/world-bank-maintains-its-growth-forecast-for-egypt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series of strikes on <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2026\/04\/09\/world-bank-maintains-its-growth-forecast-for-egypt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lebanon<\/a>, a point of debate between the two sides over whether the truce covers Lebanese territory.

Picking up where we left off, the two-episode premiere proves the showrunners aren\u2019t here to play around and will not leave any plot holes unfilled. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The plot:<\/strong> Starlight (Erin Moriarty) and her team (Jack Quaid as Hughie, Karen Fukuhara as Kimiko, Tomer Capon as Frenchie, Karl Urban as Butcher, and Laz Alonso as MM) are plotting to kill the hitherto invincible Homelander (Antony Starr), who has now all but taken control of the entire US, making the president his bartender. It won\u2019t be a walk in the park, because the group is somewhat broken and still reeling from the events of the previous season. For several legacy characters, the end looms near, making for some compelling self-confrontations and introspection as they grapple with the gravity of their choices.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What we liked:<\/strong> This season, the political parallels are in full bloom. Essentially, a superhero-infused representation of American politics, corruption, and conservative ideology. The Boys offers scathing commentary on the current real-life state of the US, complete with misinformation campaigns, scandal cover-ups, minority targeting, and restrictions of freedom. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>For a show built on absurdity, The Boys presents a frighteningly accurate depiction of the current administration<\/strong>\u2026 if both political parties were headed by immortal superhumans with limitless power and broken moral compasses. Both episodes checked all our boxes: snappy dialogue, pacing, plot, and humor. The CGI also gives Marvel a run for its money.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What you might not like:<\/strong> If you are already acquainted with the franchise, you know what you\u2019re in for. The show is very explicit, both visually and audibly. Expect gore, profanity, and nudity \u2014 this is definitely not a family-friendly watch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>WHERE TO WATCH-<\/strong> Episodes are dropping weekly on Wednesdays on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.primevideo.com\/detail\/0N9BB22P2FZ8UD2BBLNX07RP22\/ref=atv_sr_fle_c_sr9fee6d_pvsearchresults_1_1\" style=\"\">Prime Video<\/a>.
