Good morning, friends, and welcome to another late-summer workweek. <\/strong>It\u2019s the last full week before some of our readers send the kids back to school (in one form or another) and we hope all of you enjoy every last second of it.<\/p>\n

Look for three stories to dominate headlines this week:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1- It\u2019s an election week. <\/strong>Voters living abroad can cast ballots today and tomorrow in the first-ever elections to the nation\u2019s Senate, the newly reconstituted upper house of parliament. Voters here at home will head to polling stations on Tuesday and Wednesday. We\u2019re officially in a quiet period now<\/a> after the 15-day campaign came to an end yesterday. Expect to go back to the polls in September if runoffs are necessary. Some 300 people will sit in the senate, 100 of them appointed by the presidency and the rest elected whether they run as individuals or on party lists.<\/p>\n

2- It\u2019s interest rate week. <\/strong>The Central Bank of Egypt\u2019s monetary policy committee meets to review interest rates on Thursday. Will it take advantage of the low global interest rate environment and make it easier for Egyptian businesses to take on debt to finance post-covid growth? With many companies still at less than 100% utilization of both their existing plants and facilities, it wouldn\u2019t be surprising if the CBE were to leave rates on hold to bolster our position as one of the world\u2019s most attractive destinations for the carry trade<\/strong>. Doing so would help ensure a steady flow of FX into the country at the same time as tourism, remittances and Suez Canal receipts take it on the chin. Look for a hint on which way things are going tomorrow<\/strong>, when inflation data for July should land.<\/p>\n

3- All eyes around the region are on Beirut<\/strong>, which was wracked by protests yesterday as businesses take stock in the wake of last week\u2019s massive explosion. We have the full rundown in this morning\u2019s Speed Round, below.<\/p>\n

\n

Is the gov\u2019t planning to redefine \u201cMade in Egypt\u201d?<\/strong> How much local content does something need to be declared made in Egypt? A Trade and Industry Ministry committee is looking at that question right now, Al Shorouk<\/a> reports. Manufacturers currently have to obtain at least 25% of their components from local sources for products to be considered Egyptian.<\/p>\n

SIGN OF THE TIMES #1: 20% of incoming first years at Harvard are taking a gap year<\/strong>, having reportedly told the university<\/a> they want to defer their admission.<\/p>\n

SIGN OF THE TIMES #2: BP looks like it\u2019s going to sell oil and gas assets <\/strong>with a view to cutting its output of hydrocarbons by as much as 40% and getting more into renewables, according to a Reuters exclusive<\/a>. The story doesn\u2019t specify which assets are on the auction block other than to note that \u201csources have previously told Reuters\u201d that BP could shed oil sands projects in Canada and deep water blocks off Angola.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s it like to be a (new) CEO right now? <\/strong>That\u2019s the subject of a lengthy Wall Street Journal<\/a>piece<\/a> that looks at how new bosses are getting squared away and working on that \u201cvision thing\u201d when they can\u2019t meet face-to-face with their subordinates. It\u2019s a story worth reading even if you\u2019ve occupied your office for a few years now. Follow it with the Journal\u2019s sage advice to let your deputies step up<\/a><\/strong> if you\u2019re not able to and ask yourself if your company is doing remote work \u201cright,\u201d<\/a><\/strong> courtesy of the NYT.<\/p>\n

Still think the best way to learn is with a case study? <\/strong>New leaders could do a lot worse than to go read about how \u201cTim Apple\u201d took over from Steve Jobs and remade the world\u2019s most valuable company in his image \u2014 while simultaneously preserving that which is special about its culture and DNA. See the WSJ\u2019s How Tim Cook made Apple his own<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\n

The Health Ministry <\/strong>confirmed<\/a><\/strong> 21 new deaths from covid-19 yesterday<\/strong>, bringing the country\u2019s total death toll to 4,992. Egypt has now disclosed a total of 95,314 confirmed cases of covid-19, after the ministry reported 167 new infections yesterday<\/strong>. We now have a total of 51,672 confirmed cases that have fully recovered.<\/p>\n

Egypt\u2019s single-day case numbers have been inching up since <\/strong>Tuesday<\/a><\/strong>, 4 August<\/a>, when we had reached a near-four-month low.<\/p>\n

Starting 15 August, foreign visitors will need to show a negative PCR test for the virus that <\/strong>causes covid-19. <\/strong>The test must have been taken no more than 72 hours before passengers want to travel, the Civil Aviation Ministry said in a statement<\/a>. Exemptions will apply for Arab travelers as well as passengers traveling on direct flights to Sharm El Sheikh, Taba, Hurghada, Marsa Alam, and Matrouh International Airports.<\/p>\n

Sudan is officially reopening its land border with Egypt today<\/strong>, after closing the Argeen and Eshkeet crossings in March to curb the spread of covid-19, according to a Sudanese government decision picked up by the press<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Covid-19 cases in Africa top 1 mn:<\/strong> The number of confirmed cases of covid-19 in Africa has exceeded 1 mn, with South Africa accounting for more than half of infections on the continent, Reuters<\/a> reported on Thursday. Almost 22k people had died from the virus as of Thursday and more than 676k had recovered. Although infection rates are low in comparison with the rest of the world, the virus is likely to be more widespread than the data suggests due to low levels of testing, according to health experts.<\/p>\n

\n

The current occupant of the White House signed four executive orders on covid relief for <\/strong>US citizens <\/strong>after the collapse of talks with opposition Democrats. The orders partially extend several measures<\/a> passed in March that expired at the beginning of this month, potentially deepening economic hardship for unemployed citizens and damaging any recovery.<\/p>\n

But at least the jobless rate is falling:<\/strong> The US unemployment rate fell to 10.2% in July from 11.1% in June, as employers added 1.8 mn jobs \u2014 a much lower number than June\u2019s 4.8 mn \u2014 according to the US labor department. Leisure, hospitality, retail, and healthcare are among the industries that saw the largest gains, the Financial Times<\/a> reports. The US has recovered fewer than half the jobs lost during the pandemic, data shows.<\/p>\n

\n

Twitter may be interested in buying TikTok<\/strong>, emerging as a late rival to Microsoft\u2019s bid for the video sharing app\u2019s US operations, Reuters<\/a> writes, noting that it\u2019s very much an open question whether Twitter could put together an offer that outbids whatever Microsoft is willing to put on the table.<\/p>\n

Berkshire Hathaway\u2019s net earnings shot up 87% y-o-y in 2<\/strong>Q2020<\/strong>, signaling a huge turnaround from massive first quarter losses, according to its earnings report<\/a> (pdf). The Warren Buffett-owned conglomerate is often seen as \u201ca bellwether for the market given the diverse businesses it owns,\u201d says CNN Business<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Central bankers in emerging markets have done well throughout the covid-19<\/strong> crisis<\/strong>, thanks to quantitative easing programs mirroring what advanced market central banks do to keep long-term interest low, the Financial Times\u2019<\/a> Jonathan Wheatley writes. While the policy approach in EM is not quantitative easing in the traditional sense, the policies have, in some respects, \u201cachieved spectacular success\u201d in improving local bond markets. Since a panic-induced selloff in March saw investors flee USD 33.5 bn-worth of EM bonds, central bank policies have managed to lure back nearly USD 62 bn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
