Good morning, all. <\/strong>We have some good news to kick off the issue after yesterday\u2019s surprise fuel price hike \u2014 the EGP is strengthening against the greenback, the bourse is up, and we\u2019re hoping we\u2019re on the path to recovery after what has been a volatile March so far. <\/p>\n

To balance out the good news<\/strong>, February\u2019s inflation reading came in higher than expected, primarily driven by a jump in food and beverage prices and the road ahead points to further increases, which could put monetary easing on the backburner for now. <\/p>\n

<\/a> FUEL PRICES \u2014 Yesterday\u2019s <\/strong>fuel price hikes<\/a><\/strong> are <\/strong>alread<\/strong>y starting to filter <\/strong>through to the price of goods and services<\/strong>, with the Chambers of Commerce\u2019s Land Transport Division considering hiking prices by 15-20% on the back of the 17.1% jump in diesel prices to EGP 20.50 per liter, a source with knowledge of the matter tells EnterpriseAM.<\/p>\n

Your mobile bill may also soon rise as operators push for price adjustments <\/strong>following the fuel price hikes, further adding to the already increasing costs of operating cell towers, a source working at a mobile operator tells us. The proposal is currently under study, with a final decision to raise prices likely next month, a government source in the sector said.<\/p>\n

But some goods will remain shielded from potential increases<\/strong>, like subsidized bread purchased with ration cards, which will remain at EGP 0.20 a loaf as the state covers the extra EGP 134 mn in additional expenses from fuel price hikes, Supply Minister Sherif Farouk said. The price of unsubsidized fino bread, however, is expected to rise 20%, with a final decision to be made tomorrow as the Bakeries Division meets, head of the division Abdullah Ghorab tells us.<\/p>\n

Prices of subsidized goods at the proper outlets and from cooperatives are likewise set <\/strong>to remain stable<\/strong>, the minister said. Agricultural goods should also see a limited impact, as the use of large-capacity vehicles to transport produce helps distribute the added fuel costs across more units, effectively reducing potential price increases per item, Vegetables and Fruits Division head Hatem El Naguib explained.<\/p>\n

\n

The road to recovery? <\/p>\n

<\/a> After days <\/strong>of weakening, the EGP posted gains against the greenback <\/strong>yesterday<\/strong>, with the USD changing hands at EGP 51.94-52.04 at state-owned banks, falling from record highs seen earlier in the week. <\/p>\n

The bourse also saw gains<\/strong>, with the EGX30 rising 2.9% yesterday, driven by local institutions.<\/p>\n

Interbank activity didn\u2019t reflect the strengthening EGP<\/strong>, with interbank volume surpassing USD 1.3 bn, banking sources told EnterpriseAM. The increase was the result of banks looking to meet higher import demand, amid growing concerns that the continuation of the war could extend shipping times and delay deliveries, in addition to foreign investor outflows.<\/p>\n

AND- Checking in on the citizen bonds. <\/strong>The debt instrument brought in EGP 5 bn since its debut late last month, a senior government source told us, adding that this exceeds expectations and reflects a recovery in the local debt market. <\/p>\n

Market watch<\/p>\n

<\/a> Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Iraq, and Kuwait cut production by some 6.7 mn <\/strong>bbl \/ d<\/strong> \u2014 shaving some 6% off global oil supply, Bloomberg<\/a> reports, citing people it says are familiar with the matter. Saudi trimmed some 2.5 mn bbl \/ d, Iraq roughly 2.9 mn bbl \/ d, the UAE 500k-800k bbl \/ d, and Kuwait about 500k bbl \/ d. For Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Kuwait, that translates to roughly 20-25% below February output levels.<\/p>\n

The spillover: <\/strong>The crisis is triggering a \u201csevere chain reaction\u201d across shipping, [ins.], aviation, agriculture, and automotive supply chain,\u201d Aramco\u2019s CEO Amin Nasser said, noting that global inventories are already sitting near five-year lows.<\/p>\n

Following <\/strong>Monday\u2019s dro<\/strong>p, oil prices eased further yesterday <\/strong>after the Wall Street Journal<\/a> reported that the International Energy Agency is considering releasing more than 182 mn barrels of oil to curb the surge in prices seen since the outbreak of the US-Israel-Iran war. A decision on the motion is anticipated today. The plan requires unanimous approval for immediate adoption, otherwise the process could be stalled.<\/p>\n

Prices fell on the news<\/strong>, with Brent futures dropping 0.26% to USD 87.57 \/ bbl and West Texas Intermediate dipping 0.44% to USD 83.08.<\/p>\n

Could this be the second wind we need? <\/strong>Egypt\u2019s status as a net oil importer has made it especially sensitive to the war\u2019s impact on fuel pricing, which makes a stabilizing force very welcome for our economy. Morgan Stanley downgraded<\/a> the outlook of Egyptian equities due to the economy\u2019s relative vulnerability to oil supply shocks earlier this week.<\/p>\n

Data point<\/p>\n

22% \u2014 that\u2019s how much <\/strong>global air cargo capacity<\/strong> was reduced last week as disruptions from the<\/strong> war mounted<\/strong>, Reuters<\/a> reported on Thursday, citing aviation-focused consulting firm Aevean. The impact was most severe on the Asia-Middle East-Europe corridor, where capacity has been slashed by 39%.<\/p>\n

The big story abroad<\/p>\n

It\u2019s another mornin<\/strong>g with the front pages all about the US and Israel\u2019s continued <\/strong>campaign against Iran<\/strong>, which saw the most intense night of aerial bombardment<\/a> on Tuesday. Earlier today, Iran retaliated<\/a> by launching attacks on central Israel and US military sites in Bahrain.<\/p>\n

That said, Washington urged Israel not to launch further strikes on Iranian energy <\/strong>facilities<\/strong>, especially oil infrastructure, three unnamed sources told Axios<\/a>. The Trump administration reportedly argued that such attacks would harm the Iranian public and jeopardize future US cooperation with Iran\u2019s oil sector post-conflict. Washington also cautioned that these strikes could provoke retaliatory strikes against Gulf allies and their own energy sites.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile on Wall Street: <\/strong>Microsoft has cemented its support<\/a> for Anthropic\u2019s lawsuit against the Pentagon, arguing that moves to punish the AI startup would be detrimental to the broader US tech scene. <\/p>\n
