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, EGX board member Rania Yacoub told EnterpriseAM <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>.
