00:00Welcome to Medi1, the newspaper of economic news.
00:13We start in Morocco, where the Moroccan authority of the capital market has published the eleventh edition of its review of the capital market,
00:20revealing a notable dynamic in the cartography of investors in the Casablanca stock exchange.
00:26Moroccan people have seen their weight in stock market investments progress spectacularly,
00:32from 11% in the second quarter of 2023 to 27% in the same period in 2024.
00:38This increase of 16 points in percentage shows a growing interest of individuals for the capital market.
00:45In terms of accounts, their number reached 169,863 in the second quarter of 2024,
00:52against 152,676 a year earlier, an increase of 11%.
00:58At the same time, the so-called OPCVM, collective real estate placement agencies,
01:04have also seen their share of the market grow, although to a lesser extent,
01:09from 29% to 32%, i.e. plus 3 points.
01:13On the other hand, Moroccan people have seen a sharp drop,
01:18their share decreasing from 46% to 31% over the period, i.e. a drop of 15 percentage points.
01:25Foreign Moroccan people now represent 6% of the transactions.
01:30At the end of the second quarter of 2024, the volumes exchanged on the central market remain dominated by OPCVM
01:38and Moroccan Moroccan people, who alone accumulate 63% of the transactions, with 32% and 31% respectively.
01:46Moroccan physical people, with their 27% contribution, position themselves as a growing weight actor,
01:52while foreign Moroccan people remain a minority, representing only 6% of the exchanges.
02:01And we stay in Morocco.
02:02The real estate market has shown a slight drop in prices in the third quarter of 2024,
02:07accompanied by a sharp decrease in transactions,
02:10according to joint data from Banca Almarrebe and the National Agency for Funding Conservation, Cadastre and Cartography.
02:17The global index of real estate assets has fallen by 0.2% compared to the previous quarter.
02:24This drop reflects a decrease of 0.4% of land prices and 0.7% of professional use assets,
02:32while residential property prices remained stable.
02:36In terms of transactions, a global drop of 28.9% has been recorded, with a drop of 30.4% for residential,
02:4515.9% for land and 41.1% for professional use assets.
02:51City trends show marked regional variations.
02:55In Rabat, prices fell by 0.6%, with notable drops for residential and professional assets,
03:03while sales fell by 25.1%.
03:06Casablanca recorded a global drop of 1%, especially for land and professional assets,
03:13with a drop in transactions of 30.1%.
03:16Marrakech saw its prices drop by 0.5%,
03:20but transactions recorded a significant drop of 53.5%, especially in residential.
03:28Tangier, on the other hand, showed a slight increase in prices of 0.1%,
03:32although sales also fell by 9.6%.
03:36And now let's go to the United States.
03:39The United States, which could hit the ceiling of its debt by mid-January,
03:43is what Treasury Secretary Jeannette Yellen said.
03:46Legislators have suspended the ceiling of the debt,
03:49a limit on government loans to pay existing invoices.
03:53Until January 1, 2025, on January 2, a new limit will be set
03:57corresponding to the amount of debt issued by the Treasury Department.
04:01But according to analysts, the United States will not immediately reach the limit
04:05when the ceiling will no longer be suspended on January 2,
04:08because in the course of the country's debt, it should decrease by about $54 billion,
04:13thanks to a refund.
04:15The Congress has already raised the ceiling more than 100 times
04:19to allow the government to respect its spending commitments,
04:23but conservatives are generally opposed to the increase in the country's massive loans,
04:27which currently exceeds $36 billion,
04:30and many Republicans have never voted in favor of a refund.
04:35And then in Germany, there are many growths in the economy,
04:39including chemistry and automobiles,
04:41which are expected to see job losses in 2025,
04:44a sign of a transformation of the labor market in a difficult economic context.
04:49The number of employer federations planning to reduce employment in the next 12 months
04:54will rise to 25 in 2025, according to an IWR survey
04:58carried out between the end of November and the beginning of December
05:01by nearly 49 organizations.
05:03These negative job prospects
05:05concern the value chain linked to construction,
05:08including real estate, the machine, tools, the automotive industry
05:12and its subcontractors, steel and metallurgy, agriculture,
05:16plasturgy and tourism.
05:19And that's the end of this economic newspaper.
05:23Have a good rest of the program.
