Egypt delays stock exchange reopening

CAIRO: Egypt's stock exchange will not reopen on Monday, as previously announced, and a decision has yet to be taken on when it will resume business, the state MENA news agency said on Saturday.

Khaled Serri, head of the exchange, told the news agency that the bourse would remain shut on Sunday and Monday, as anti-regime demonstrations continued into their 12th day on Saturday.

The date for "resuming operations of the stock exchange has not been determined yet," he said, adding that it would depend on developments.
