<strong>THIRST WATCH- Ethiopia plans to start filling its GERD in July 2020<\/strong>, Ethiopian Irrigation Minister Seleshi Bekele reportedly said during Egypt-Sudan-Ethiopia technical talks that <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2019\/12\/23\/egypt-ethiopia-sudan-to-hold-new-round-of-gerd-talks-in-addis-ababa-in-january-8929\/\">wrapped up in Khartoum<\/a> on Sunday, according to a report in <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/2sY3afK\">Asharq Al Awsat<\/a> yesterday. Bekele was quoted by reporters as commenting on the Khartoum meetings\u2019 outcome as disappointing, saying \u201cwe hoped to reach an agreement on disputed issues between Sudan, Egypt, and Ethiopia.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Background: <\/strong>The foreign ministers of Egypt, Ethiopia, and Sudan <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2019\/11\/07\/what-were-tracking-on-7-november-2019\/\">vowed<\/a> after a get-together in Washington, DC, last month to hash out their differences by no later than mid-January. Pre-arranged technical talks were then scheduled, the last of which was the Khartoum sit-down.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s next? <\/strong>Talks in Addis Ababa 9-10 January will pave the way for another round of discussions in Washington on 13 January.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The news comes as Ethiopia closes the 2010s as the world\u2019s fastest-growing <\/strong><strong>economy <\/strong>in both absolute and per-capita terms, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/c71cd2e5-7e32-4675-9680-e94bfd7f055d\">the Financial Times<\/a> wirtes. GDP has soared nearly 147% since 2009 and the East African nation\u2019s per capita purchasing power grew 149% in the past decade. \u201c[Ethiopia\u2019s growth] was state-led \u2026 public investment in infrastructure \u2014 roads and a lot of electricity,\u201d chief economist at Renaissance Capital Charles Robertson said. The country has reaped significant gains from embracing the \u201cstatist\u201d Chinese-inspired growth model in the 2010s despite the global economic doom and gloom. One of the outgrowths of the model is the USD 4 bn GERD, which Addis Ababa sees as critical to overcoming food shortages and drought.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!--

Investors are starting to regain their finer tastes by investing in wine as an asset, even though it doesn\u2019t yield returns, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/64b50824-2247-11ea-92da-f0c92e957a96\">according to The Financial Times<\/a>. Its potential for capital growth is wine\u2019s redeeming factor and in the recent period, negative interest rates are pushing investors to rethink wine\u2019s ability to be a safe haven asset along with fine art, classic cars, or cryptocurrencies. \u201cIn a record-low interest rate environment, people are being forced to look outside their normal sources of return,\u201d said Tom Gearing, co-founder of Cult Wines, a company that trades wine on behalf of private investors. The London-based company has seen the assets it manages surge to GBP 121 mn this year from GBP 33 mn in 2016 as investors flock back to wine (which they always have the option to just drink).<\/p>\n<p><strong>It might not be a bad idea to tie up your wealth in fine wine<\/strong>, says <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bordeaux-traders.com\/news\/recession-proof-investment-in-luxury-wines\/\">Bordeaux Traders<\/a>, a fine wine investment brokerage. They explain that wine is a \u201crecession proof investment\u201d as unlike traditional investments, luxury wines are minimally influenced by exchange and interest rate changes (an opinion we take with a pinch Penot Noire).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fine wine has indices and an online marketplace of its own, including the Liv-ex Fine Wine 50 index<\/strong>, created by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.liv-ex.com\/2018\/09\/fine-wine-market-past-present-future\/\">Liv-ex Fine Wine Market<\/a>, which tracks daily price movements of fine wines. They\u2019ve created ane e-commerce platform where global merchants can automatically offer stocks to be globally traded before it Liv-ex send over the physical asset.<\/p>\n<p>And if the investment seems attractive, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.winemag.com\/2019\/10\/01\/a-beginners-guide-to-wine-futures-and-en-primeur\/\">Wine Enthusiast Magazine<\/a><\/strong><strong> offers up a primer on wine futures. <\/strong><\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/china\/\">China<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/worth-reading\/\">worth reading<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"592027\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"592027\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">6<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Worth Listening<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2019\/12\/24\/sarwa-capital-ceo-on-working-in-an-industry-most-dont-understand-2\/\">\r\n                            Sarwa Capital CEO on working in an industry most don\u2019t understand                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2019\/12\/24\/sarwa-capital-ceo-on-working-in-an-industry-most-dont-understand-2\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();
