Egypt Stock Exchange, Closed for Seven Weeks Amid Unrest

Egypt’s stock exchange, which has been closed for more than seven weeks, will open on March 23, government spokesman Magdi Rady said in Cairo today.

Egyptian Prime Minister Essam Sharaf asked Mohamed Abdel Salam, the head of the state-run clearing house, to supervise the stock exchange for six months, the Cabinet said in a statement. Abdel Salam will continue with his job at the clearing house and will take over the running of the stock exchange from today, the Cabinet said.

“This decision comes after all necessary measures have been taken to ensure the safe opening and smooth trading of the bourse,” the Cabinet said in a second statement.

The stock market has been closed since the end of trading Jan. 27 after the benchmark EGX 30 Index plunged 16 percent that week amid the uprising that toppled President Hosni Mubarak.

Changes being sought by citizens in the Middle East will be good for the markets there, investor Mark Mobius said today in an interview with Bloomberg Television. Egypt offers opportunities for investors and telecommunications and construction companies may be worth buying in the region, he said.

Fears Egypt vote to benefit Islamists

CAIRO — Egypt's first exercise in democracy in decades was hailed as a success Monday, but the result of a key referendum has raised fears in some quarters that Islamists will hijack looming elections.
Egyptians on Saturday voted 77 percent in favour of proposed constitutional amendments intended to guide the Arab world's most populous nation through new presidential and parliamentary elections within six months.
The Muslim Brotherhood threw its huge influence and grassroots organisation behind a "yes" vote, although youth groups that spearheaded the protests which forced Hosni Mubarak to resign as president last month had called for a "no" vote.
They argued the timetable set by the military was too tight for them to organise at grassroots level, that the Muslim Brotherhood would benefit and that the changes to the Mubarak-era constitution were too limited.
In an editorial, the mass-circulation daily Al-Ahram said the referendum was a "win for democracy," a view echoed by the state-owned Al-Gomhuria which said: "Everybody has won in this referendum, whether they voted yes or no."
The Coalition of the Revolution's Youth urged supporters not to feel defeated after the result, and called on everyone to respect the result of the "historic democratic process" and quickly begin work on the next phase.
"We are now on the doorstep of a new era, in which Egyptians will shape their state for decades to come... we must work to carry on fulfilling the ambitions of the revolution," the group said on its Facebook page.
But others felt more threatened by the result.
"The referendum, while it was free of fraud, was not free of 'influence', especially by the Muslim Brotherhood and the religious trend in general," wrote Suleiman Gouda in the independent daily Al-Masry Al-Youm.
"The mosques were used by these groups to influence the voters," he said.
The Muslim Brotherhood, the largest opposition movement in the country and officially banned in the Mubarak era, used its new found freedom -- and organisational skills -- to campaign for a "yes" vote.
The group, and other more fundamentalist religious movements, presented the "yes" vote as a religious duty, though many at polling stations said they voted "yes" for the sake of "stability" rather than religious inclinations.
In the run-up to the vote, "the 'yes' camp had been warning people of suffering on the day of judgment if they don't vote yes," wrote columnist Salama Ahmed Salama in the independent daily Al-Shoruk.
Gouda urged the army to oversee the country's handover to a secular figure.
"The country must be handed over to an elected secular president, not to the Brotherhood, not because we are against them as a movement, but because the current exceptional circumstances work in their favour and not the others," he wrote.
"There has to be fair competition."
More than 14 million Egyptians approved the constitutional amendments and four million said "no", organising commission chairman Mohammed Attiya said.
A total of 41 percent or 18.5 million of the estimated 45 million eligible voters turned out on Saturday to seize their first taste of democracy, after 18 days of demonstrations ended Mubarak's 30 years of authoritarian rule, he added.
The turnout for Mubarak-era elections was always minuscule as none was genuinely competitive and in any case nobody had any faith their vote would count amid widespread rigging and fraud.
But observers warned that people should not content themselves with the success of one democratic exercise.
"Egyptians must realise that the road to democracy is still long and difficult and full of danger," wrote political analyst Hassan Nafea in Al-Masry Al-Youm.
"All political forces, regardless of their leanings, must work to draw up a safe road map for democracy," he said.
The changes approved are by themselves uncontroversial, although critics argued they did not go far enough in overhauling the Mubarak-era charter, which they said needed to be completely rewritten.
The president will serve a maximum of two four-year terms and will no longer have the power to refer civilians to the military courts.

Promoters

Twitter Promoters are the best way to increase branding power and awareness of your website, products and services.Build your official Account, and would like them to promote it on Facebook and other web parts, attracting potential customers.Twitter is promoter's best friend. Twitter can be an incredibly powerful tool for party promoters who are looking to promote their events and websites. Twitter can be a cheap and effective way of advertising a product, brand or business. It is important to tailor the promotional campaign.

crowd


A crowd is a large and definable group of people, while "the crowd" is referred to as the so-called lower orders of people in general (the mob). A crowd may be definable through a common purpose or set of emotions, such as at a political rally, at a sports event, or during looting, or simply be made up of many people going about their business in a busy area (eg shopping). Everybody in the context of general public or the common people is normally referred to as the masses.

Terminology

The term crowd is often defined in contrast to other group nouns for collections of humans or animals: aggregation, audience, group, mass, mob, populous, public, rabble and throng. For example in "Public Opinion" Vincent Price compares masses and crowds:
Crowds are defined by their shared emotional experiences, but masses are defined by their interpersonal isolation.
In human sociology, the term "mobbed" simply means "extremely crowded", as in a busy mall or shop. In animal behaviour mobbing is a technique where many individuals of one species "gang up" on a larger individual of another species to drive them away. Mobbing behaviour is often seen in birds.

Social aspects of crowds

Social aspects are concerned with the formation, management and control of crowds, both from the point of view of individuals and groups. Often crowd control is designed to persuade a crowd to align with a particular view (e.g., political rallies), or to contain groups to prevent damage or mob behaviour. Politically organised crowd control is usually conducted by law enforcement but on some occasions military forces are used for particularly large or dangerous crowds.

Social aspects of crowds for adolescent peer groups

Adolescent culture is a relatively new feature of society, affecting most teenagers in the United States since the 1930s. The research on adolescent culture began with the search for identities: who the adolescents and their peer groups are and the differences and how adolescent culture differed from adult culture. Many researchers are making efforts to develop an understanding of the functions of crowds. But the findings are complicated due to multiple definitions of the crowd. Now in adolescence, peer affiliation becomes more important than ever before. Youths tend to categorize themselves and each other based on stereotypes and reputations. These categories are known in the developmental psychology literature as peer crowds. Crowds are defined as reputation based collectives of similarly stereotyped individuals who may or may not spend much time together. Crowds also refer to collectives of adolescents identified by the interests, attitudes, abilities, and/or personal characteristics they have in common. Crowds are different from cliques, which are interaction based peer groups who hang out together. Crowds are not simply clusters of cliques; the two different structures serve entirely different purposes. Because the clique is based on activity and friendship, it is the important setting in which the adolescent learns social skills like how to be a good friend and how to communicate effectively. These and other social skills are important in adulthood as well as in adolescence. Crowds are based on reputation and stereotypes than on interaction; they probably contribute more to the adolescent sense of identity and self-conception. For example jocks and burnouts are more likely to be interaction based than such crowds as loners and nerds.

Psychological aspects of crowds

Psychological aspects are concerned with the psychology of the crowd as a group and the psychology of those who allow their will and emotions to be informed by the crowd (both discussed more comprehensively under crowd psychology), and other individual responses to crowds, such as crowd-sickness, claustrophobia and agoraphobia.

Group action


In algebra and geometry, a group action is a way of describing symmetries of objects using groups. The essential elements of the object are described by a set and the symmetries of the object are described by the symmetry group of this set, which consists of bijective transformations of the set. In this case, the group is also called a permutation group (especially if the set is finite or not a vector space) or transformation group (especially if the set is a vector space and the group acts like linear transformations of the set).
A group action is a flexible generalization of the notion of a symmetry group in which every element of the group "acts" like a bijective transformation (or "symmetry") of some set, without being identified with that transformation. This allows for a more comprehensive description of the symmetries of an object, such as a polyhedron, by allowing the same group to act on several different sets, such as the set of vertices, the set of edges and the set of faces of the polyhedron.
If G is a group and X is a set then a group action may be defined as a group homomorphism from G to the symmetric group of X. The action assigns a permutation of X to each element of the group in such a way that
the permutation of X assigned to the identity element of G is the identity transformation of X;
the permutation of X assigned to a product gh of two elements of the group is the composite of the permutations assigned to g and h.
Since each element of G is represented as a permutation, a group action is also known as a permutation representation.
The abstraction provided by group actions is a powerful one, because it allows geometrical ideas to be applied to more abstract objects. Many objects in mathematics have natural group actions defined on them. In particular, groups can act on other groups, or even on themselves. Despite this generality, the theory of group actions contains wide-reaching theorems, such as the orbit stabilizer theorem, which can be used to prove deep results in several fields.
