I go on @pakistonomy and speak with @UzairYounus on economy, debt restructuring, and what needs to be done, imo!
Had a great time recording this.

One of the most impressive things about Pakistan's economic rebound during the pandemic is how strongly exports have rebounded.
June 2021 exports are 22% higher than the exports in Jan 2020.
This momentum must continue to build for growth to be sustainable.
This week’s episode focuses on the potential of agribusiness in Pakistan.
Had a great time talking to @PNJunkIEE about doing business in Gilgit-Baltistan, which is one of the largest producers of walnuts in the world.

The government has reduced the petroleum levy "from Rs30/liter at its peak to Rs6.39/liter for petrol and Rs11.72/liter for diesel. Assuming an average monthly consumption of 1.3 billion liter, the monthly revenue loss is around Rs20 billion."

The latest @tabadlab @pakistonomy was perhaps one of the more challenging ones for me.
I didn’t agree with much of what Dr Shahida said, but it is sometimes important to listen and absorb perspectives you may disagree with.
Watch 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽.

UPDATED CHART: Pakistan's export rebound continues, while India shows significant strength as its export industry roars back.
Bangladesh continues to struggle, highlighting the risks of a concentrated export sector.

CHART: From 2011 to 2018, KSE's earnings-per-share ramped up at a stellar pace.
But this growth was not sustainable, and a comparison with the Sensex shows that Pakistan's equities have historically lagged India's in recent years.

Here is some historic year-on-year data to put the Mar '21 growth of 41% in perspective:
Mar-16 = +26.9%
Mar-17 = +15.3%
Mar-18 = +16.7%
Mar-19 = +0.2%
Mar-20 = -13.2%
Mar-21 = +41%
Meaning that low-base effect is in full play for Mar '21.
