Cairo – Mubasher: The Egyptian Exchange (EGX) is likely to see sideways trend on Thursday, as the market waits to see new liquidity on the availability of positive news, technical analysts told Mubasher.

“The benchmark will move lower towards the level of 5,750 points, if it break below the level of 6,000 points,” said Hassan.
“The market indices are seen fluctuating on Thursday’s session, where the benchmark is expected to retest the support levels of 6,000 and 5,940 points,”said Ayman Fouda, head of capital market committee at the African Economic Council.
The market will gain momentum on the availability of new liquidity upon releasing any positive news, added Fouda, noting that the main gauge will face resistance at the levels of 6,132 and 6,200 points.
