Good morning, all.<\/strong> We end this shorter-than-usual work week with another packed issue, led primarily by capital markets news, including Bonyan\u2019s muted market debut and a breakdown of the driving forces behind the EGX30\u2019s rally earlier this week. Momentum in the benchmark index\u2019s rally momentum fizzled out before Bonyan could capture it in the company\u2019s first day of trading, despite analysts suggesting that real estate players were a driving force behind the EGX30 hitting record highs on Sunday and Monday.<\/p>\n

PLUS-<\/strong> We have a secondary macroeconomics theme going for us this morning, as the EGP strengthened against the greenback to its highest level in around eight months, while central bank figures indicate our current account deficit narrowed in 9M 2024-25.<\/p>\n

<\/a> ** A QUICK <\/strong>PROGRAMMING<\/strong> NOTE- <\/strong>EnterpriseAM Egypt will be joining the rest of you in taking tomorrow off in observance of the 23 July Revolution. We\u2019ll be back in your inboxes bright and early on Sunday with everything you may have missed from over the long weekend.<\/p>\n

<\/a> Something to look forward to in the weeks to come:<\/strong> The committee organizing the Grand Egyptian Museum\u2019s (GEM) opening ceremony met yesterday to set a new date for the long-awaited event, Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly said<\/a>. The museum was initially scheduled to officially open its doors on 3 July, but the long-anticipated event was delayed<\/a> to the last quarter of the year following Israel striking Iran mid-June. Coordination is now underway between the relevant authorities to decide on a new date and announce it. <\/p>\n

ICYMI- <\/strong>We spoke to Aly Khattab, founder of Egyptian specialty coffee brand ReQaf<\/a>, for our weekly Founder of the Week column yesterday. Check out the interview here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

#2- Al Mashat, AFC, Infinity Power talk green funding:<\/strong> Planning Minister Rania Al Mashat met yesterday with representatives from the African Finance Corporation's (AFC) asset management arm and our friends at Infinity Power to explore avenues to mobilize concessional finance for climate-resilient infrastructure, according to a statement<\/a>. The discussions focused on AFC's Infrastructure Climate Resilient Fund for Africa which is backed by the Green Climate Fund and supports green energy and sustainable transport projects.<\/p>\n

The end goal:<\/strong> The government is prioritizing partnerships with international institutions to unlock more green financing and expand private sector involvement in development, Al Mashar said. She directed technical teams to coordinate with AFC and Infinity Power to explore how local companies can take advantage of the new fund and assess next steps for implementation. <\/p>\n

\n

HAPPENING TODAY-<\/p>\n

#1- We\u2019re keeping <\/strong>our fingers crossed for Egyptian finance legend Mohamed El Erian to be <\/strong>elected<\/strong> the next chancellor of Cambridge University<\/strong>, with results expected to be published online<\/a> later today. El Erian is pitching himself<\/a> as a \u201cguardian of tradition and a catalyst for innovation\u201d in the race against the nine other competing candidates.<\/p>\n

\n

\n

<\/a> #2- Investment <\/strong>Minister Hassan El Khatib is currently in Japan to discuss ways to boost trade and joint <\/strong>investments<\/strong>, according to a ministry statement<\/a>. During his visits to Tokyo and Osaka, El Khatib is scheduled to meet with senior government officials and representatives from four leading Japanese investment firms.<\/p>\n

Keep your eyes peeled for Egypt-bound Japanese investments: <\/strong>El Khatib will meet with representatives from six investment and financial institutions and funds and take part in a seminar, which will bring together around 200 representatives from Japanese companies and institutions. He will also hold one-on-one meetings with four Japanese investment giants.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re going to<\/strong> be on the lookout for talks about an upcoming Samurai bond issuance<\/strong>, which a senior government source has recently told us about<\/a>. Egypt is currently awaiting approval from the African Development Bank for a USD 400 mn guarantee for a new tranche of JPY-denominated bonds, the source noted.<\/p>\n

PSA- <\/p>\n

<\/a> Thanaweya Amma results are out:<\/strong> Education Minister Mohamed Abdellatif yesterday announced the results of the Thanaweya Amma exams, according to a ministry statement<\/a>. Over 73% of students who took the exams passed. <\/p>\n

WEATHER- <\/strong>It\u2019s another hot day in Cairo, with a high of 39\u00b0C and a low of 27\u00b0C, according to our favorite weather app.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a little cooler in Alexandria<\/strong>, with a high of 34\u00b0C and a low of 25\u00b0C.<\/p>\n

ENERGY WATCH-<\/p>\n

Egypt is impo<\/strong>rting<\/strong> some 1.1 bcf\/d of natural gas from Israel<\/strong>, Oil Minister Karim Badawi told Asharq Business<\/a>. The imports are up from around 650-750 mcf\/d we were importing at the end of last month, when Israel ramped up<\/a> its gas exports to Egypt from its Leviathan field after a brief halt as Israel exchanged airstrikes with Iran.<\/p>\n

Egypt\u2019s current domestic gas output \u2014 <\/strong>excluding production from Zohr \u2014 stands at 3.2 bcf\/d<\/strong>, according to Badawi. Zohr alone is producing some 1.4 bcf\/d. <\/p>\n

2026 target in sight:<\/strong> The government aims to increase total production to 4.4 bcf\/d by the end of 2026 as part of efforts to boost energy security.<\/p>\n

IN CONTEXT- <\/strong>The country is facing a gas shortfall<\/a> of about 2.5 bcf\/d as local production and pipeline imports from Israel fall short of the 6.5 bcf\/d needed to meet peak demand.<\/p>\n

\n

DATA POINT-<\/p>\n

Speaking of the US and China, Microsoft said Chinese hacking groups were involved in a major hack of its SharePoint software<\/strong>, which has affected hundreds \u2014 if not thousands \u2014 of firms and organizations hosting the software on-premise. (CNBC<\/a> | Washington Post<\/a>)<\/p>\n
