This month, the Bank of London & The Middle East announced an intent to list its shares on the Nasdaq Dubai in October, the bourse's first listing in almost five years. The news was then followed by two IPO revelations this week - Just Falafel is considering a 25 per cent listing of the food chain's shares on the Nasdaq Dubai and Damac Properties is eyeing a London share sale. The renewed confidence among UAE companies illustrates a marked change in attitude towards raising capital from equity markets. "More investors are turning to investment banks to take their companies public," said Mohammed Ali Yasin, the managing director at National Bank of Abu Dhabi's brokerage arm. "Valuations have become much more interesting and give room for founders to realise good value from selling their companies." UAE shares traded at 10 times earnings about a year ago. For a company to go public, they would have to be valued at five to seven times earnings, "which is not exciting or interesting for founders of those companies", said Mr Yasin.

These aliens are really strong." If you're debating whether to catch Man of Steel and are on a time-crunch, let me save you a pile of nerd words and say, yes, go see it. Because even though it's not quite the Superman movie people have been hoping for after Superman Returns, and I'm about to nitpick the hell out of it, it does start out full of promise and potential that you almost don't completely zone out once the whole thing becomes a CGI pinball game with characters loosely resembling the ones you saw earlier played by actors. It's also not quite the well-crafted reboot Batman Begins was, despite huge similarities thanks to sharing the same writer and Christopher Nolan producing, but it does come close before Zach Snyder basically goes, "Eh, that's enough stories. Just throw him at sh*t."
