row, setting what we expect will be the theme of the week on the airwaves. El Sisi is set to address world leaders at the UN Climate Action Summit, which kicks off later today, Al Hayah Al Youm\u2019s Lobna Assal reports (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=eX26_9MYXoM\">watch, runtime: 7:47<\/a>). Co-host Khaled Abu Bakr, who is in New York with the president, phoned home to give a report on El Sisi\u2019s meetings yesterday. We have more in Diplomacy + Foreign Trade, below.<\/p>\n<p><b>El Sisi\u2019s meeting with<\/b> <b>UN Food and Agriculture Organization Director-General<\/b> Qu Dongyu was of particular interest to Hona Al Asema\u2019s Reham Ibrahim, who highlighted \u201cthe close cooperation\u201d between Egypt and FAO in the fields of food safety, food security, and agricultural development (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=FaMjkxvxnUo\">watch, runtime: 2:18<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><b>Gov\u2019t meeting on slums, social housing:<\/b> Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly\u2019s meeting with the cabinet economic group to discuss a government plan to develop slum areas and relocate residents in these areas to social housing got some airtime on Hona Al Asema (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=JaNusuEbX-o&t=319s\">watch, runtime: 12:54<\/a>).

With yields on short-term US bonds eclipsing those of long-term bonds in August for the first time since 2007, the very wealthy are seeing less value in the bond market, and seeking to reduce their exposure to risks associated with interest rate and market fluctuations. Instead, they are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/7ebfa850-bf2d-11e9-9381-78bab8a70848\">increasingly stockpiling cash<\/a>, hoping to maintain liquidity. Those who don\u2019t want to shift away from equities altogether are gravitating towards index and low volatility ETFs, as well as dividend-paying stocks with solid balance sheets. And gold is outperforming both stocks and bonds, seeing its value soar from USD 1.2k to over USD 1.5k per ounce in the space of a year.<\/p>\n<p><b>The advice across the board?

But wealth managers are also urging their clients not to underestimate the value of time. The markets are jittery at the moment, but short-term swings appear very different when looked at in the long-term. And sometimes it\u2019s worth just staying the course and sticking to a long-term investment plan, rather than seeking to anticipate every market development \u2014 an investment approach that, interestingly, reflects the philosophy <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/2019\/02\/17\/coffee-mohamed-farid-chairman-egyptian-exchange\/\">articulated by<\/a> EGX chairman Mohamed Farid in a conversation we held back in February.<\/p>\n\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\/bonds\/\">Bonds<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/capital-markets\/\">capital markets<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/economy\/\">economy<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/equities\/\">equities<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/gold\/\">gold<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/investment-watch\/\">investment watch<\/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=\"595328\" 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=\"595328\">\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 watching<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2019\/09\/23\/is-chinas-race-to-lead-ai-bringing-big-brother-to-the-classroom\/\">\r\n                            Is China\u2019s race to lead AI bringing Big Brother to the classroom?                        <\/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\/09\/23\/is-chinas-race-to-lead-ai-bringing-big-brother-to-the-classroom\/\" 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();

Among several high-tech initiatives, the daily use of a brainwave-sensing gadget on groups of children aged around 10 is one of the most controversial. The device picks up on electrical signals sent by neurons in the brain, and feeds this data to a computer, where it is intended to assess the attentiveness of each student.<\/p>\n<p><b>It generates powerful algorithms, but the data may not be fully reliable:<\/b> Neuroscientists have expressed concern at this measurement \u2014 electroencephalography (EEG) \u2014 being used in a classroom. Not only is it notoriously susceptible to false readings, but there are likely no privacy protections in place for the students, and, with their every brainwave under scrutiny, many are feeling additional pressure.

No further details were provided, but the restructuring plans come after the Financial Regulatory Authority (FRA) last month ordered the majority shareholder Adeptio AD Investments to make a <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2019\/08\/01\/americana-egypts-minority-shareholders-reject-adeptio-ads-buyout-offer\/\">mandatory tender offer<\/a> (MTO). Adeptio, which is led by Emirati businessman Mohamed Alabbar, acquired 67% of Americana Egypt\u2019s parent company Kuwait Food Company (Americana) in 2016. This resulted in Adeptio controlling some 90% of the subsidiary\u2019s shares, and prompted the FRA to order an MTO to purchase the remaining shares.<\/p>\n\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\/allen-overy\/\">Allen &amp;
