Egypt’s stock
exchange, closed since January 27 because of the protests that ousted
President Hosni Mubarak, has decided to reopen on Tuesday, the cabinet
said in a statement.
“The prime minister
has presented proposed measures through the Egyptian Financial
Supervisory Authority and the Egyptian Exchange in preparation for a
resumption of bourse trading, and this is in light of the bourse’s
decision to resume trading on Tuesday, March 1, 2011,” the statement
said on Sunday.
