Even BTC, which closed out 2024 with a staggering 121.3% YTD gain, is being left in the dust by the EGX30 this time round, with the cryptocurrency having fallen 9.5% since January.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>While that\u2019s undoubtedly positive for the EGX, the comparison between the EGX and <\/strong><strong>GCC indexes doesn\u2019t paint the full picture. <\/strong>The divergence has more to do with structural differences than market outperformance in the traditional sense. As we explain below, the unique mechanics of the EGX helped it emerge a winner by virtue of its structure, not necessarily market fundamentals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The EGX\u2019s relative resilience is largely a function of its investor base. <\/strong>Trading activity remains dominated by local, retail investors \u2014 for example, 80.9% of trading activity was done by retail investors and 90.5% by local investors during trading yesterday. These investors tend to be more reactive to local cues and sentiment-driven triggers, such as the recent <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/b04c7948-4ceb-4edb-84e3-5c6c9f2fe953\/a-flexible-fx-regime-is-key-as-egypt-faces-trump-turmoil,-aboul-naga-tells-investors-in-dubai\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">reaffirmation of Egypt\u2019s commitment to a flexible FX regime<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>This means that any sell-off is less likely to spiral<\/strong>, because retail traders account for the lion\u2019s share of turnover in Egypt, 3 Way Securities Chair Rania Jacoub told us <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/88c9269d-b92b-4b90-ae84-627421cde876\/local-institutional-investors-cash-out-amid-global-market-jitters\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">last week<\/a>.

Case in point: Tadawul closed yesterday with a turnover of SAR 6.5 bn \u2014 23x the EGX\u2019s 90-day average.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Crude overhang is also weighing on Gulf markets<\/strong>, as weakness in crude continues to pressure sentiment and the earnings outlook for Gulf corporates, especially state-linked and large-cap names. This pressure is reflected in YTD performances of important market constituents, including Aramco \u2014 the Tadawul\u2019s heavyweight \u2014 which is down -7.5%, the DFM-listed DEWA in the red -10.3%, and Abu Dhabi\u2019s Taqa at -2.2%.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\"> MARKETS THIS MORNING- <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Asian markets are mixed this morning <\/strong>following a tech rally in US markets, with Japan\u2019s Nikkei up 1%, and Hang Seng (Hong Kong) virtually unchanged, while Shanghai Composite is inching down 0.4%.
