Nasdaq was 1% higher at market closing time yesterday, \u201cwhile the broader S&amp;P 500 ended up 1.3%,\u201d which is just above its 200-day moving average, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/aa461838-3716-11e8-8eee-e06bde01c544\">says the Financial Times<\/a>. \u201cThe downwards pressure had lingered in Europe earlier in the day, where the Stoxx index tracking the tech sector closed down by 0.8%, although that was off its widest losses for the session. Its declines remained broad, with only four of its 27 constituents making gains.\u201d Analysts expect fear of an imminent trade war between the US and China to continue affecting global market activity.<\/p><p><strong>Asian markets are mixed this morning. <\/strong>Shares in Japan, Korea and Hong Kong are largely in the red, while Shanghai and Shenzhen are in positive territory.<\/p><p><strong>That trade war? Chances are, it just got real: <\/strong>The Trump administration last night imposed \u201c25 percent tariffs on some 1,300 industrial technology, transport and medical products to try to force changes in Beijing\u2019s intellectual property practices,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/usa-china-trade-int\/u-s-escalates-china-trade-showdown-with-tariffs-on-50-billion-in-imports-idUSKCN1HA2Q7\">Reuters reports<\/a>.

Sources had <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2018\/03\/27\/government-to-issue-first-eur-denominated-eurobonds-on-luxembourg-stock-exchange-in-three-weeks-time\/\">said last week<\/a> that the eurobonds would have tenures of seven, 12, 15, and 30 years, and that officials would make a final decision on whether to take the offering north of EUR 2 bn based on feedback from investor meetings. Zaki Hashem &amp; Partners and Linklater are legal advisors to the investment banks, while Al Tamimi &amp; Co. and Dechert were chosen as legal advisors to the government for the transaction, which will be Egypt\u2019s first-ever EUR-denominated bond sale. The government concluded a USD 4 bn eurobond sale in February.<\/p><p><strong>An IMF delegation is in town to review Egypt\u2019s tax laws and follow up on efforts to reform them, <\/strong>Finance Minister Amr El Garhy said yesterday, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shorouknews.com\/news\/view.aspx?cdate=03042018&amp;id=c40d68b6-ec04-483f-bedd-a489a0da48f4\">Al Shorouk reports<\/a>. The House of Representatives is expected to discuss <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2018\/03\/21\/tenders-and-auctions-act-income-tax-amendments-to-go-to-plenary-session-in-april\/\">amendments to the Income Tax Code<\/a> that would push the deadline for submitting supplementary documentation to tax returns in a plenary session this month, once it reconvenes after Easter break. El Garhy hinted that more amendments to the rules and administration of taxes are on their way.<\/p><p><strong>With the EGX having outperformed regional stock markets this year, there\u2019s an expectation that the rally is set to continue following the elections<\/strong>. The crux of the issue is whether the government will continue with the reform agenda. Naeem Holding Director of Research Allen Sandeep believes that the government will press forth with the reform agenda and so too shall the Egypt rally. He also tells Bloomberg TV that continuing with the reform agenda will help keep FX reserves at an upward trajectory, even if that is at a slower pace (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/videos\/2018-04-03\/egypt-s-share-benchmark-outperforms-saudi-arabia-s-video\">watch, runtime: 3:17<\/a>).<\/p><p><strong>Did Saudi just recognize Israel?<\/strong> Israelis \u201chave the right to have their own land\u201d alongside the Palestinians, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/international\/archive\/2018\/04\/mohammed-bin-salman-iran-israel\/557036\/\">interview with the Atlantic<\/a>. When asked if Iran was pushing Israel and Saudi closer together, he said: \u201cOf course there are a lot of interests we share with Israel and if there is peace, there would be a lot of interest between Israel and the Gulf Cooperation Council countries and countries like Egypt and Jordan.\u201d The statement marks the first public acknowledgement of the existence of Israel by a Saudi official ever. It may be one of the few statements by regional to publically attest to an inherent right for Israel to exist and not just a reality, said former US peace negotiator Dennis Ross. MbS\u2019 statement comes as he is on a grand schmoozing tour of the US to encourage investors and improve Saudi\u2019s image abroad.<\/p><p><strong>The EGX will <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.egx.com.eg\/English\/trading_calendar.aspx\"><strong>close on Sunday and Monday<\/strong><\/a><strong> next week<\/strong> <strong>for a four-day weekend<\/strong> in observance of Easter and Sham El Nessim.

Deputy speaker Soliman Wahdan echoed Hasaballah, saying that at least four cabinet positions should see a shakeup and that El Gendy should be the first to go (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=xjW0Daxgi0Q\">watch, runtime: 6:25<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of flaps that have been blown out of proportion, <strong>Al Masry Al Youm has issued a formal apology for publishing a story insinuating that the state bought votes in the election<\/strong>, Press Syndicate head Abdel Mohsen Salama told Al Hayah Al Youm\u2019s Tamer Amin. The syndicate is also working to mediate a resolution between the daily newspaper and the Supreme Media Council to reduce or altogether cancel the EGP 150,000 fine slapped on AMAY. Separately, Salama said that the syndicate plans to set up a EGP 20 mn training center for journalists (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jh_lpgnuj9g&t=173s\">watch, runtime: 37:50<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>The next four years under President Abdel Fattah El Sisi should see the government focus on industrial development<\/strong>, which is the key to creating job openings and high levels of economic growth, Holding Company for Spinning and Weaving head Ahmed Mostafa said on Masaa DMC (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_AfSBLXkXrU\">watch, runtime: 4:09<\/a>).

The drop was driven by downward movements in sub-components such as new orders and employment, with sentiment dipping to an eight-month low as well. The upside is that the data signaled easing inflationary pressures across the non-oil private sector as both input prices and output charges increasing at softer rates. Input costs, in particular, also dropped to a 30-month low. New export orders were up for the third month running as well, with demand from Middle Eastern countries picking up. <strong>Improvement in the Egyptian economy is still expected to be felt this year<\/strong>, Emirates NBD MENA Economist Daniel Richards says. Richards notes that \u201cthe latest PMI data implies that [the improvement] is taking longer than the authorities might have hoped. Nevertheless, the index has consistently threatened to turn expansionary over recent readings, which is a vast improvement on the months just prior to the economic reforms.\u201d<\/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\/speed-round\/\">SPEED ROUND<\/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=\"629915\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"629916\" 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=\"629916\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">5<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Image of the Day<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/04\/04\/drawing-found-in-sinai-could-change-what-we-know-about-judaism\/\">\r\n                            Drawing found in Sinai could change what we know about Judaism                        <\/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\/2018\/04\/04\/drawing-found-in-sinai-could-change-what-we-know-about-judaism\/\" 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();

Emerging markets as a whole are still miles behind the developed world where green energy is concerned, but Africa in particular suffers from a specific problem: \u201cEven if energy companies are able to enter into long-term agreements with utility companies to supply renewable power, there can still be uncertainty as to whether the latter will ultimately be able to afford to pay the agreed tariffs throughout the life of the contract,\u201d according to the International Energy Agency\u2019s (IEA) Heymi Bahar.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Africa could become the world\u2019s top producer of wind and solar power by 2040:<\/strong> Although wind and solar power accounted for only 1% of the continent\u2019s power generation in 2016, Bahr believes that \u201csignificant progress [is] possible because the demand for increased power across Africa is so great, and the continent\u2019s latitude means solar, alongside wind, could be the cheapest way of meeting this demand.\u201d Research from the IEA shows that Africa will continue to trail behind other developed and emerging economies by 2040 unless it adopts a sustainable development scenario, which could also work to mitigate the effects of global warming. Under that scenario, \u201cwind and solar would need to account for 44% of Africa\u2019s production by 2040, the highest proportion of any region in the world.\u201d<\/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\/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=\"629925\" 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=\"629925\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">9<\/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\/2018\/04\/04\/refugee-entrepreneurs-create-markets-under-extreme-conditions-in-jordans-zaatari-camp\/\">\r\n                            Refugee entrepreneurs create markets under extreme conditions in Jordan\u2019s Zaatari camp                        <\/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\/2018\/04\/04\/refugee-entrepreneurs-create-markets-under-extreme-conditions-in-jordans-zaatari-camp\/\" 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();

Some of these businesses are so successful they\u2019re exporting their work outside the camp, as in the case of Hassan, who employs seven people in his Syrian sweets shop, with four outlets across the camp, and a fifth one underway. Qaseem\u2019s bike shop is also a thriving business that customizes donated bikes.

Egypt, which is will not officially join those meetings, will likely use the trip to push its policy of re-engaging with NBI states. Egypt had suspended its membership in the NBI in 2000 to protest plans by upstream countries to renegotiate a 1959 water-sharing agreement.<\/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\/diplomacy-foreign-trade\/\">Diplomacy + Foreign Trade<\/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=\"629930\" 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=\"629930\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">11<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Energy<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/04\/04\/nomp-signs-mou-with-uaes-atd-to-increase-efficiency-of-power-stations\/\">\r\n                            NOMP signs MoU with UAE\u2019s ATD to increase efficiency of power stations                        <\/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\/2018\/04\/04\/nomp-signs-mou-with-uaes-atd-to-increase-efficiency-of-power-stations\/\" 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();
