中东市场油价攀升 股市上涨

据彭博社7月13日报道，受上周五油价上涨的影响，加上有进一步迹象表明，各国政府准备采取更多措施刺激经济，中东股市普遍走高。

特拉维夫股市，以色列TA-35指数上涨1.5%，实现四个交易日来首次上涨。政府在周四股市收盘后表示，失业救济金将持续到2021年6月，同时失业率将保持在10%以上，这是一项价值约900亿谢克尔（260亿美元）的救助计划的一部分。

在迪拜，主要股指上涨0.5%，此前一系列价值15亿迪拉姆（约合4.084亿美元）的新经济刺激措施侧重于增强企业流动性和降低经营成本。尽管如此，标普全球预计，由于需求低迷和油价低迷，迪拜今年的国内生产总值（GDP）将萎缩11%。

阿联酋阿卡姆资本(Arqaam Capital)的股票研究主管Jaap Meijer表示，迪拜的一些新措施可能会“永久化”，因为其目标是降低整体经营成本。甚至在疫情危机之前，迪拜就已经意识到运营的成本已经太高了。

巴林、沙特阿拉伯、阿布扎比、科威特、卡塔尔和埃及股市一度上涨2.1%，上周五布伦特原油价格上涨2.1%，至每桶43.24美元。

Middle Eastern Markets Climb With Oil, Stimulus Eyed: Inside EM

Stocks across the Middle East advanced, taking their cue from Friday’s rally in oil prices and amid further signs that governments are ready to do more to stimulate their virus-battered economies.

Israel’s TA-35 rose as much as 1.5% in Tel Aviv, heading for the first increase in four sessions. The government said after markets closed Thursday that unemployment benefits will remain in place through June 2021 while the jobless rate stays above 10%, as part of a relief program worth about 90 billion shekels ($26 billion).

In Dubai, the main index climbed as much as 0.5% after a new set of economic incentives worth 1.5 billion dirhams ($408.4 million) focused on reinforcing liquidity in companies and reducing the cost of conducting business. Still, S&P Global Ratings expects the city’s gross domestic product to shrink 11% this year amid subdued demand and low oil prices.

Some of Dubai’s new measures are likely to “be made permanent, because the target is to reduce the overall cost of doing business,” said Jaap Meijer, the head of equity research at Arqaam Capital in the emirate. “Even before pre-covid crisis, Dubai had realized the cost of doing business had become too high.”

Shares in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, Kuwait and Qatar and Egypt climbed as much as 2.1% after Brent crude advanced 2.1% to $43.24 per barrel on Friday.
