President Abdel Fattah El Sisi spoke at the opening ceremony last night in Sharm El Sheikh, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.almasryalyoum.com\/news\/details\/1214700\">Al Masry Al Youm reports<\/a>. Dignitaries from some 64 nations will be attending. Trade and Industry Minister Tarek Kabil <a href=\"http:\/\/gate.ahram.org.eg\/News\/1637226.aspx\">also tells us that<\/a> a number of economic agreements will be signed during the WYF. The forum\u2019s sessions will begin today; <a href=\"https:\/\/egyouth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/ARTWORKS\/English_Time_Table.pdf\">you can view the full agenda here (pdf)<\/a>. We have a bit more in Last Night\u2019s Talk Shows, below.<\/p><p><strong>2) The fallout from what is being cast as a purge in Saudi led by Mohamed bin Salman<\/strong> is at (or near) the top of the global business news agenda. The talking heads have reacted poorly to the arrest of Alwaleed bin Talal (shocking, we know) and are openly questioning how investors will react. Some have openly suggested it might be bad for the Aramco IPO. <strong>It\u2019s also had an impact here at home, with the EGX30 closing down 1% in light trading<\/strong> (volumes were about 9% below the trailing 90-day average). Shares of real estate developer TMG, which had tied itself to the Saudi bandwagon, plunged, as did shares of Al Baraka Bank, which is majority owned by Sheikh Saleh Kamel, a prominent Saudi investor in Egypt. We have more in Speed Round, below.<\/p><p><strong>3) The House of Representatives is back in session today <\/strong>now that speaker Ali Abdel Aal &amp; Co. are back from Amreeka. Among the many items up for discussion is a draft bill banning the import, manufacturing, selling or possession of drones without permits. Punishment for violators could reach the death penalty, especially if the drone is used for a terrorist attack, House National Security Committee member Khaled Abou Taleb <a href=\"https:\/\/aawsat.com\/english\/home\/article\/1074191\/egypt-heading-ban-drones-prevent-their-use-terror-operations\">tells Asharq Al Awsat<\/a>.<\/p><p><strong>The central bank <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbe.org.eg\/ar\/Pages\/HighlightsPages\/-%D8%B5%D8%A7%D9%81%D9%89-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%AD%D8%AA%D9%8A%D8%A7%D8%B7%D9%8A%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D9%8A%D8%B5%D9%84-%D8%A5%D9%84%D9%89--36703-1-%D9%85%D9%84%D9%8A%D9%88%D9%86-%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%B1-%D8%A3%D9%85%D8%B1%D9%8A%D9%83%D9%8A-%D9%81%D9%89-%D9%86%D9%87%D8%A7%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D8%A3%D9%83%D8%AA%D9%88%D8%A8%D8%B1-2017-.aspx\"><strong>announced yesterday<\/strong><\/a><strong> that net foreign reserves grew to USD 36.703 bn<\/strong> as of the end of October, from USD 36.535 bn <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/issues\/2017\/10\/03\/ismail-outlines-legislative-agenda-house-convenes-fall-session\/\">in September<\/a>.<\/p><p><strong>EFG Hermes\u2019 <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/irmailshots.inktankcommunications.com\/t\/i-l-ohllkhk-zikutltdr-w\/\"><strong>7th Annual London Conference<\/strong><\/a><strong> kicks off today and runs through Thursday.<\/strong> The conference will bring C-suite execs from top listed companies in MENA as well as frontier markets (among them Pakistan, Kenya, Nigeria, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka) face-to-face with top global investors with mandates to invest in emerging and frontier markets.

from Thursday<\/strong> when its <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbe.org.eg\/en\/MonetaryPolicy\/Pages\/MPCMeetingSchedule.aspx\">Monetary Policy Committee convenes<\/a>. Our take: Expect no rate cut before MPC\u2019s 28 December meeting, by which time a year of post-float inflation data will be in the bag. With inflation on a still-declining trend (remember: ain\u2019t the same thing as deflation, folks), it will be politically acceptable to declare that the war on inflation is being won and that some relief on rates will be appropriate. That also feeds nicely into the narrative heading into a presidential election cycle.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Egypt is on track to issue its first electronic visa in December <\/strong>as part of the rollout of a number of e-government services at the <a href=\"http:\/\/cairoict.com\/\">Cairo ICT expo<\/a> running from 3-6 December. The e-visa had been slated for a May implementation but was met with stiff resistance from many in the tourism industry who viewed it as another barrier to tourists\u2019 return.<\/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\/on-the-horizon\/\">ON THE HORIZON<\/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=\"636985\" 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=\"636985\">\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\">Enterprise+: Last Night\u2019s Talk Shows<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2017\/11\/06\/the-world-youth-forum-was-without-exception-on-every-talking-heads-agenda\/\">\r\n                            The World Youth Forum was, without exception, on every talking head\u2019s agenda                        <\/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\/2017\/11\/06\/the-world-youth-forum-was-without-exception-on-every-talking-heads-agenda\/\" 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();

Contractions in output, new orders, and employment all eased, the report showed even though they were \u201cmuted in comparison to the historical average.\u201d The reading also showed softening in both output and input price inflation. \u201c<strong>Job shedding among Egyptian non-oil private sector companies continued in October<\/strong>, thereby extending the current sequence of contraction to 29 months. Anecdotal evidence suggested a trend of firms not replacing retiring employees. That said, the rate of decline eased in the latest survey.\u201d The reading of 48.4 in October increased from September\u2019s 47.4, and came as \u201cexport orders increased on average last month, after declining in September. Encouragingly, business optimism in October was the highest in more than two years,\u201d Khatija Haque, Head of MENA Research at Emirates NBD, commented.<\/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\/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=\"636996\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"636997\" 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=\"636997\">\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\/2017\/11\/06\/electric-cars-going-hyper\/\">\r\n                            Electric cars going hyper                        <\/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\/2017\/11\/06\/electric-cars-going-hyper\/\" 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 the bill\u2019s problems is that it will bar unions from receiving \u201cforeign funding,\u201d which he says is a vague stipulation that takes advantage of the current political climate that is wary of foreign meddling, despite funding from trustworthy bodies such as the International Labor Organization falling under the umbrella of foreign funding. The bill furthermore does nothing to protect the political rights of workers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Awad\u2019s concerns are similar to those of the recently-formed Supreme Council of Independent Labor Unions<\/strong>, which announced at a press conference on Saturday that it rejects the bill altogether, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.almalnews.com\/Story\/351833\/19\/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D8%B9%D9%84%D9%89-%D9%84%D9%84%D9%86%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%A8%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D8%B3%D8%AA%D9%82%D9%84%D8%A9-%D9%8A%D8%B1%D9%81%D8%B6-%D9%85%D8%B4%D8%B1%D9%88%D8%B9-%D9%82%D8%A7%D9%86%D9%88%D9%86-%D9%85%D8%AB%D9%8A%D8%B1-%D9%84%D9%84%D8%AC%D8%AF%D9%84\">Al Mal reports<\/a>. Members of the council decried the bill as \u201cunfair,\u201d \u201cunconstitutional,\u201d and one that serves businessmen and the government but works against laborers.
