2/3 Long
$EEM — On Monday 2026-01-12 US cash open, if EEM opens down ≥1% versus its 2026-01-09 close following Egypt’s CPI release on Saturday, go long at market, target a 1.5% gain by Tuesday’s close, with a stop 1% below entry.
Egypt’s December CPI print can alter Egypt’s policy and real-rate outlook, affecting EGP risk premia and EM sovereign pricing, with spillovers into broader EM FX and credit. A sizeable Monday gap-down in EEM after the data would likely reflect a risk-off reaction. Using a broad EM equity ETF allows a tactical, liquid rebound trade on any overshoot.
