The Egyptian Exchange gains exceeded EGP 9.6 billion over the past week, bringing market capital to EGP 664.2 billion.
The gains were triggered by foreign investors' heavy purchases which represented 28.5 percent of the past week's trading, said the bourse's weekly report, a copy of which MENA obtained.
The report noted that a positive climate prevailed the bourse in view of the successful visit of President Abdel Fattah El Sisi to the US.
The EGX 30 benchmark index inched up 0.8 percent over the past week to hit 13,099 points.
The broader EGX 70 index of the leading smaller and mid cap enterprises (SME) rose by 3 percent to record 587 points.
The all-embracing EGX 100 index also increased by 1.9 percent to stand at 1,353 points.
