You may be in a tight spot. <\/strong>US President Donald Trump wants to abolish citizenship by birthright, a process by which nearly anyone born on American soil can claim US citizenship. The Donald made his plan public yesterday in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/trump-birthright-citizenship-executive-order-0cf4285a-16c6-48f2-a933-bd71fd72ea82.html\">exclusive interview with Axios<\/a> in which he said he would \u201csign an executive order that would remove the right to citizenship for babies of non-citizens and unauthorized immigrants born on US soil.\u201d<\/p><p><strong>Why you may need to worry: <\/strong>The move would call into question a booming bicoastal cottage industry that helps Egyptians of a certain walk of life obtain US citizenship for their kids. MDs on each coast have built thriving \u201cbirth tourism\u201d practices bundling together the cost of prenatal care in the final months of pregnancy and the actual delivery together with an apartment, a nanny and other services.<\/p><p><strong>Why you may not (yet) need to freak out: <\/strong>First, there seems to be consensus that the executive order would be forward-looking \u2014 if you or your kid were born in the US to parents who were not American citizens, you\u2019re not likely to lose your passport. Second, The Donald is in for a court challenge \u2014 the right to citizenship by birthright is enshrined in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.loc.gov\/rr\/program\/bib\/ourdocs\/14thamendment.html\">fourteenth amendment to the US constitution<\/a>, which guarantees a pretty blue passport to \u201call persons born or naturalized in the United States.\u201d The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2018\/10\/30\/us\/politics\/trump-birthright-citizenship.html?smprod=nytcore-ipad&amp;smid=nytcore-ipad-share\">New York Times<\/a> has more.<\/p><p><strong>Where is oil headed?<\/strong> Down, think the hedgies, who may be \u201closing confidence\u201d in the \u201conce hot\u201d oil market after crude prices tumbled 13% this month from a four-year high, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/hedge-funds-lose-confidence-in-once-hot-oil-market-1540900800\">Wall Street Journal<\/a> writes. That comes as oil prices climbed yesterday for the first time in three days, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-global-oil\/oil-prices-rise-for-first-time-in-three-days-but-trade-war-fears-drag-idUSKCN1N5043?il=0\">Reuters<\/a> adds.<\/p><p><strong>But oil may not be sinking on the trade fears that Reuters cites: <\/strong>Saudi Arabia and Russia decided to \u201cset aside\u201d OPEC\u2019s pact to reduce oil output in September and began ramping up their oil production to fill the void left by other countries, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/graphics\/opec-production-targets\/?srnd=premium-middle-east\">according to Bloomberg<\/a>. \u201cThat increase has been offset by a freefall in Venezuela, where an economic crisis has dragged output to record lows. The South American nation\u2019s production was 58 percent of what it was in October 2016, the reference month for supply cuts.\u201d The spike in output from KSA and Russia has balanced out declining supply from other oil exporters.<\/p><p><strong>Caveat lector: All of this speculation is moot until next week<\/strong>, when US sanctions on Iran will take Iranian crude off the (legal) import

day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The government is considering amendments to a 2010 law that regulates private sector participation in national infrastructure projects<\/strong>, cabinet spokesperson Nader Saad told Al Hayah Al Youm. He explained that the law was due for an update since it was passed and its executive regulations issued before the events of 2011. Saad said that it contains provisions that regulate private financing of public projects. A committee made up of finance and planning ministry officials has been formed to study possible revisions to the act, according to Saad (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=fUxv1_HVSsI\">watch, runtime: 6:35<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>University-affiliated hospitals are lagging when it comes to research<\/strong>, the assistant secretary of the Supreme Council of Universities, Hossam Abdel Ghaffar, told Lama Gebril during an appearance on Hona Al Asema. He said that a new law regulating medical and scientific research is expected to help catapult Egypt forward (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tziEA2meKVw\">watch, runtime: 3:43<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Arming the workforce with appropriate training and skills is key to developing local industry, <\/strong>according to Masaa DMC. Host Osama Kamal had a chat yesterday with the head of the Badr Investors Association Bahaa El Adly and the deputy head of the Chemicals and Fertilizers Export Council Hani Cassis (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Q4QEHzSAEEM\">watch, runtime: 6:38<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <strong>Al Hayah Al Youm spoke to Egypt\u2019s wannabe-tomb raider Zahi Hawass<\/strong> about the state of antiquities around the country (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RF-8ZRhUQSE\">watch, runtime: 1:58<\/a>).<\/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\/development\/\">development<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/enterprise-last-nights-talk-shows\/\">Enterprise+: Last Night\u2019s Talk Shows<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/legislation\/\">legislation<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/local-industry\/\">local industry<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/private-sector\/\">private sector<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/public-healthcare\/\">public healthcare<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/talk-shows\/\">talk shows<\/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=\"623465\" 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=\"623465\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">3<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Speed Round<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/10\/31\/medhat-khalil-co-looking-to-submit-mto-for-raya\/\">\r\n                            Medhat Khalil &#038;

Khalil, the company\u2019s chairman, was quoted in the local press (<a href=\"https:\/\/alborsaanews.com\/2018\/10\/30\/1146283\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/almalnews.com\/Story\/396510\/11\/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A8%D9%88%D8%B1%D8%B5%D8%A9-%D8%AA%D9%84%D8%BA%D9%8A-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D9%85%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D9%86%D9%81%D8%B0%D8%A9-%D8%B9%D9%84%D9%89-%D8%B3%D9%87%D9%85-%D8%B1%D8%A7%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%A8%D8%B6%D8%A9-%D8%A8%D8%AC%D9%84%D8%B3%D8%AA%D9%8A-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%8A%D9%88%D9%85-%D9%88%D8%A3%D9%85%D8%B3\">here<\/a>) as saying he would submit an MTO next month to acquire 100% of Raya at EGP 10 per share. The reports claim that Khalil is making the bid after the Financial Regulatory Authority (FRA) ordered that he do so or reduce his holdings, having found that Khalil and related parties control a combined 42% stake in the company. Under securities regulations, going over the 33% ownership mark triggers the MTO requirement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The MTO wasn\u2019t ordered by the regulator? <\/strong>Khalil denied in a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.egx.com.eg\/downloads\/News\/%D8%B1%D8%A7%D9%8A%D8%A9%20%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%A8%D8%B6%D8%A9%20%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%A7%D9%86%2030-10-2018.pdf\">statement to the EGX (pdf)<\/a> that his company had received any such notice from FRA \u2014 and said that he and his immediate family own less than one third of Raya\u2019s shares.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unwinding Raya trades: <\/strong>The news prompted the EGX yesterday to reverse all transactions on Raya\u2019s shares from Monday and Tuesday, the local press claims, meaning the stock is expected to open today\u2019s session at EGP 6.49 per share.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Khalil is buying at a premium <\/strong>if he goes ahead with the MTO by month\u2019s end. EGP 10 is nearly 45% above the company\u2019s share price prior to the announcement. Shuaa Securities Egypt said in a research note yesterday that \u201cnot only is it relatively [inexpensive], but it is also <strong>trading at below book value<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is Raya, anyway?<\/strong> It\u2019s not the same beast that once sold you your beloved Nokia and that bet the house on becoming the nation\u2019s third mobile network operator, losing to Etisalat, well over a decade ago.

He attributed the drop to some exporters\u2019 failure to abide by rules on pesticide usage, which had led some Arab countries to ban imports of various Egyptian crops, including peppers, guavas, and strawberries.

The company expects to obtain a loan warranty from the Finance Ministry within a week and reach financial close before end-2018.

The bill would come as part of several initiatives the government, Financial Regulatory Authority (FRA), and the Insurance Federation of Egypt are looking to introduce to stimulate the country\u2019s insurance sector, according to Maait. The three are also eyeing opening the door for healthcare and insurance companies to contribute to the implementation of the Universal Healthcare scheme. The minister did not offer further details.
