<\/a> In a world where investors are bucking African stocks for African debt, Egypt shines at both:<\/b> With Egypt\u2019s GDP growing at 5.6% in FY2018-19, the country is bucking the \u201canemic\u201d economic growth witnessed by African peers, giving it a clear advantage as far as equity traders are concerned. South Africa\u2019s output contracted the most in a decade in 1Q2019, and its key index dropped 1.4% since April, Bloomberg says<\/a>, while Nigeria is struggling to recover since the collapse of oil prices five years ago. Excluding South Africa, African stocks trade at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of barely 9 based on estimates for the next 12 months, far below the emerging and frontier market average ratio of 12. By contrast, the EGX30 has risen 4.6% YtD.<\/p>\n

Egypt remains the star in a burgeoning African debt market:<\/b> Even when looking at an African bull debt market, Egypt remains the most attractive carry trade there is. \u201cEGP bonds, which yield 16%, have made total returns of almost 8% over that period, extending their gain this year to 25%,\u201d Bloomberg notes. Foreign holdings in Egyptian treasuries stood at USD 19.2 bn mid-June, Vice Finance Minister Ahmed Kouchouk said at a presser on Wednesday<\/a>.
