Good morning, wonderful people. <\/strong>It\u2019s a busy news day here in Egypt \u2014 in stark contrast to the cone of silence that seems to have dropped on the UAE and Saudi Arabia in the past 24 hours. Could the end-of-year news slowdown soon be upon us? <\/p>\n

<\/a> IT\u2019S A BIG DAY FOR: Privatization. <\/strong>Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly is scheduled to hold a press conference at 2pm specifically to discuss the program. A government official has suggested the presser will include news that another sale agreement has been inked. <\/p>\n

AND- We\u2019re keeping an eye on the situation in the Red Sea<\/strong>, where shipping lines are diverting around the Cape of Good Hope in fear of attacks by armed Houthi groups. It\u2019s bad news for the Suez Canal \u2014 and possibly even worse for the global economy, unless a new US-led maritime security force can get things under control soon. <\/p>\n

PLUS- We have not one, but two M&As for you this morning. <\/strong>A unit of Beltone<\/strong> is making an acquisition in a smart food security play, while our friends at CIRA Education<\/strong> are welcoming publishing house and educational services provider Nahdet Misr<\/strong> as a shareholder at Innovette<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

^^ Details on all of this and more in this morning\u2019s news well, below. <\/p>\n

EGP WATCH-<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a> #1- EGP forwards hit record low: <\/strong>12-monthnon-deliverable forwards contracts have fallen 7% since mid-November to a record low of 50.50, Asharq Busine<\/a>ss<\/a> reports. That roughly matches rate at which the greenback is changing hands on the (opaque, illiquid) parallel market, further anchoring expectations of what a market-clearing rate could look like if the CBE goes for a float or devaluation of the EGP.<\/p>\n

#2- The EBRD could be extending financing to \u201cone or two banks\u201d before the year is out<\/strong>, Khalid Hamza, EBRD\u2019s Egypt boss, told Al Arabiya Business (watch, runtime: 5:22<\/a>). <\/p>\n

#3- Local-currency bond issuance from IFC next year? <\/strong>The IFC is looking to issue its first EGP-denominated international bonds in 2024, IFC Africa chief S\u00e9rgio Pimenta told CNBC Arabia<\/a>. Cabinet gave<\/a> the Finance Ministry the greenlight in August to engage with the IFC on a local-currency bond issuance. The move could see the IFC invest more in Egypt.<\/p>\n

<\/a> DATA POINT- Imports of gas from Israel exceed pre-war levels: <\/strong>Egypt has been importing 1 bn cubic feet of Israeli natural gas per day this week \u2014 up from the 850 mn cbf\/d we\u2019ve been importing in mid-November, a government official told Asharq Business<\/a>. We used to import 800 mn<\/a> cbf\/d from Israel before Netanyahu\u2019s war in Gaza disrupted supplies.<\/p>\n

DO YOU TOIL IN TEAMS?<\/strong><\/p>\n

PSA #1- If you toil in Microsoft Teams, your files app is about to become a whole lot more <\/strong>useful.<\/strong> The Redmond-based tech giant is rolling out a new OneDrive integration for Teams that will take away the useless Files tab in your chat and replace it with baked-in OneDrive app. The updated experience \u2014 familiar to anybody who has used OneDrive on the web \u2014 is rolling out this month to users of \u201cnew\u201d Teams<\/a>. \u201cOld\u201d Teams users will get it sometime in January; Microsoft has no plans right now to roll it out to its mobile app. <\/p>\n

You can get an early peek here<\/a><\/strong>if it hasn\u2019t rolled out to your app yet. <\/p>\n

PSA #2- Friday is the first day of winter \u2014 and today is our first real \u201cfall\u201d day. <\/strong>We\u2019re exaggerating there, but \u2026 not by much? Look for cloudy skies and a daytime high of 21\u00b0C in the capital city, with sunny skies Thursday and Friday with a high of 19\u00b0C over the weekend, per our favorite weather app.<\/p>\n

THE BIG BUSINESS STORIES ABROAD: <\/strong>Global shipping<\/a> woes. Colorado won\u2019t let Trump<\/a> on the ballot. And Google<\/a> will pay a USD 700 mn fine and loosen its control over the Play Store to settle a US lawsuit. <\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/p>\n

HAPPENING TODAY- <\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a>Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh will be in Egypt today<\/strong> to hold talks with intelligence chief Abbas Kamel on a ceasefire in Gaza and a prisoner swap, a source close to Hamas told AFP<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Security Council vote on Gaza: <\/strong>The UN Security Council will vote on a UAE draft resolution addressing the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The vote was due yesterday but was pushed back, Reuters<\/a> wrote.<\/p>\n

HAPPENING TOMORROW- <\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a> #1- The Central Bank of Egypt\u2019s Monetary Policy <\/strong>Committee will meet to set interest rates.<\/strong> Our analyst poll<\/a> sees the CBE holding rates steady for the third meeting in a row. <\/p>\n

#2- Catch a GFF film in Downtown: <\/strong>El Gouna Film Festival\u2019s<\/a> program continues today with a curated selection of films showing<\/a> at Downtown\u2019s Zawya cinema.<\/p>\n

#3- Movies aren\u2019t your thing? Try a play. <\/strong>Art and friendship clash in Kenoma Theater\u2019s Fann \u2014 an Egyptian adaptation of renowned playwright Yasmine Reza\u2019s Art \u2014 at Downtown\u2019s Rawabet Art Space<\/a>. You can catch the play tomorrow, Friday, or Saturday. Buy your tickets here<\/a>. <\/p>\n
