Economic & Market News Reuters: The US economy added only 156, jobs in September, the US Department of Labor announced, a figure likely to be seized on as the presidential race enters its final stretch. The unemployment rate was 5%, up from 4.9% in August. Economists had expected job growth of 175, and the unemployment rate to remain unchanged at 4.9%. Job growth has slowed down this year, with the number of jobs added averaging about 178, jobs a month. In 215, on average about 229, jobs were added each month. The report comes after a report released earlier this week by the payroll company ADP found that private companies added just 154, jobs last month. This was slowest job growth reported by ADP since April. Yet even as job growth has slowed down, the number of people applying for unemployment insurance has dropped below 25, for the second time this year. Last week, 249, people applied for unemployment benefits. The number of people currently receiving unemployment benefits is just a little over 2 million, levels last seen in 2. Reuters: The World Bank Group has raised its forecast for Egypt s growth this year to 3.8%, according to the bank s latest report. The World Bank now expects Egypt to grow to 3.8 percent this year, a slight upgrade from the 3.3 percent it forecast in earlier report. The economic growth will be pushed by the recovery in local demand as consumption remains strong, but imports is still challenged by the scarcity of foreign exchange and an overvalued pound, the bank added. According to the report, World Bank expects a steady growth for the Egyptian economy on the medium run, as the government continues its economic recovery plan and the reduction of the budget deficit. The World Bank also said that the rise in energy prices and the new value added tax could plunge the inflation on the short run, leaving a negative effect on low and middle-income families. AL Masah Capital: After the major OPEC news last week, oil reacted positively and broke the USD 52 mark, however over the weekend, with news coming from Russia that there won t be any deals with OPEC in its upcoming meeting in Istanbul, oil shied back to trade below USD 5. Global markets also responded negatively to the news and closed lower Friday. Despite the high correlation between oil prices and regional markets, most of the regional markets didn t follow the same path as oil. Negative sentiment among investors regarding macroeconomic conditions is drowning out any positive from the oil rise so most of the regional indices ended the week in the red. U Markets were the worst performers among their peers - Dubai ended the week lower by 3.45%, followed by Abu Dhabi by - 1.94%. On the other hand, Egypt led the winners over the week, going up by 6.18%, as investors increasingly believe devaluation is around the corner. Saudi Arabia also ended the week with a modest increase of.14% with investors buying dips, on a hope to make capital gains once the market follows the upward trend of oil which it usually does. In the coming week oil prices and macro news will remain the main drivers for regional markets movements as investors either position themselves for a year-end rally or move to the sidelines and stay in cash.

The outlook for Saudi Arabia is based on an expectation that the authorities will take action in order to prevent any deterioration in its fiscal position beyond our current expectations, over the next two years, S&P said in a statement. S&P believes the Saudi balance sheet will remain strong between 216 and 219, despite the sharp fall in oil prices in recent times. The rating agency asserted that Saudi Arabia a outlook could have been more positive if it weren t constrained by limited public sector transparency and lower GDP per capita in comparison to similar states. It predicts that the average annual rate change in government debt over 216-219 will level out at around 5% of GDP. Reuters: According to IMF, gross debt in the non-financial sector has more than doubled in nominal terms since the turn of the century, reaching USD 152 trillion in 215, and continues to rise. The figure includes debt held by governments, non-financial firms and households. Current debt levels now sit at a record 225% of world gross domestic product (GDP), where about two-thirds of the liabilities reside in the private sector. The rest of it is public debt, which has increased to 85% of GDP in 215 from below 7%. However, the slow global growth makes it difficult to pay off the obligations, setting the stage for a vicious feedback loop in which lower growth hampers deleveraging and the debt overhang exacerbates the slowdown. Excessive private debt is a major headwind against the global recovery and a risk to financial stability. The massive debt load complicates the task for global policy makers, who have been urged to use fiscal policy to boost growth amid the waning ability of central banks to stimulate the economy. Meanwhile, low interest rates drove a surge in corporate debt in emerging markets. Levels of private debt are now high in both advanced nations and a few large emerging markets such as China and Brazil that are considered systemically important to the global financial system. Zawya: Qatar is expected to introduce value added tax (VAT) between January 218 to 219. VAT, although expected for quite some time, will finally be introduced at an expected 5% rate in both the U and Kuwait effective January 1, 218, with Bahrain, Oman, Qatar and Saudi Arabia obliged to introduce the tax between then and January 1, 219. Despite of a very limited official information released regarding the specifics of how the VAT system to be introduced will operate, expectations are that the GCC Countries might replicate a lot of the features of the European Union VAT System, particularly bearing in mind the similarity between the GCC and EU countries. Certain educational and healthcare services will be purely exempt from VAT with no entitlement to VAT recovery on costs by the related service provider, the provision of basic foodstuff will be zero-rated (exempt with credit, thus enabling the suppliers of basic foodstuffs to recover VAT on their operating costs etc.). 3 US Government Bonds - Yield to Maturity (%) 2.333 2.475 2 1.66 1.755 1.2.259.284.338.447.48.593.642.766.858 1.152 1.291 1M 3M 6M 12M 2Y 5Y 1Y 3Y Last Week Current Week 13 12 Global Equity Indexes - Rebased 4 CBOE S&P Volatility Index - VIX 11 3 1 9 2 8 1 7 6 Oct-14 Dec-14 Feb-15 Apr-15 Jun-15 Aug-15 Oct-15 Dec-15 Feb-16 Apr-16 Jun-16 Aug-16 S&P 5 STOXX Europe 6 TR MENA Nikkei 225 MSCI Asia ex.
