The index continued to offer a yield of 5.7%, some 60 bps above its five-year average, the report said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Gulf sovereigns and government related entities (GREs) drove most o<\/strong><strong>f the returns<\/strong>, with sovereigns contributing 256 bps and GREs contributing 118 bps. Saudi Arabia (+160 bps), the UAE (+122 bps), and Egypt (+36 bps) led the way in the six months ending June, according to the report.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Mashreq Capital\u2019s sovereign picks:<\/strong> The UAE and Qatar offer stability through low breakeven oil prices and diversified economies, supporting steady spreads and investor demand, Mashreq Capital said. Saudi remains fundamentally strong, though long-end bonds face pressure from supply, the report said. Oman benefits from fiscal consolidation and policy credibility, with potential for rating upgrades, while Morocco sees tightening spreads from reforms and discipline, and Egypt is supported by GCC aid, IMF backing, and improving external balances.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>It\u2019s \u201cpositive\u201d on<\/strong> <strong>Oman, Egypt, Morocco, and Turkey, and \u201cneutral\u201d on Saudi Arabia, <\/strong><strong>UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, and Jordan<\/strong>, as these markets offer stability but may face headwinds. Bahrain stands alone with a \u201cnegative\u201d view.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The take on corporate fixed income:<\/strong> Mashreq Capital remains overweight on select infrastructure-linked bonds in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, where strong sponsors, predictable cashflows, and sound structures offer compelling yield premiums over sovereign benchmarks, the report said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>G<\/strong><strong>CC AT1s and Tier 2s in particular offer attractive carry opportunities<\/strong>, supported by well-capitalized, often state-linked banks, the report said. On the other hand, Mashreq is cautious on Bahrain and Sharjah, where weakening credit fundamentals underscore the need for more attractive entry points, despite the assumption of broader Gulf support.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The region\u2019s bond supply is expected to reach USD 125 bn by year end<\/strong>, with around 62% already executed in 1H. Saudi Arabia alone accounted for 46% of issuance so far this year. Meanwhile, Kuwait is prepping a landmark USD 20 bn bond issuance, its largest ever, after passing a long-delayed debt law. The UAE is also expected to be a major contributor to 2H supply, with Sharjah and Ras Al Khaimah already active in 1H and further issuances expected at both the federal and emirate level, the report said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">ON THE EQUITIES SIDE-<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Bullish on Emirati, Qatari equities: <\/strong>Sustained oil price movements remain the dominant driver of fiscal dynamics across the region, with the UAE and Qatar best positioned in a low-price environment due to their diversified economies and low fiscal breakeven levels, while Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Oman exhibit higher sensitivity, the report said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Mashreq Capital remains cautious on sectors tied to government spending<\/strong>, maintaining limited exposure where fiscal tightening could pose downside risk. Meanwhile, Dubai real estate remains resilient, with Emaar recording its strongest month in May, and despite slower rent growth, there are no signs of distress.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Key market signals ahead: Earnings, projects, and pressure points.<\/strong> The upcoming earnings season will be closely watched, especially in Saudi Arabia, where any further deceleration in earnings growth could weigh on overall market sentiment. Financials are expected to remain solid performers, supported by robust sector data from both Saudi and the UAE, while materials and cyclical names \u2014 particularly aluminium producers and copper miners \u2014 may deliver upside surprises. A slowdown in regional project awards has also emerged as a concern \u2014 if this trend persists, it could drag on earnings growth over the next 12\u201324 months. On the tourism front, geopolitical tensions pose a lingering risk to arrivals, though recent improvements suggest a more stable outlook. <\/p>\n<div class='stock-ticker-panel'>\n<table class='table
