The benchmark EGX30 index climbed 2.12 percent to record 8,744 points and the broader EGX70 index increased 0.56 percent.

Out of 174 traded stocks, 125 were gainers.
Market bellwether Commercial International Bank (CIB) was the biggest gainer in the main index, rising 4.19 percent to record its highest share price this year at LE40.81 per share.
CIB reported record consolidated net profits of LE1.74 billion on Tuesday for the first half of 2014, representing a 31 percent rise from the same period in 2013 when net profits were LE1.33 billion.
Talaat Moustafa Group (TMG) holding continues to lead the real estate sector, rising 3.19 percent to LE9.42 per share.
