Yup, and if you don’t do what they say they have a “meeting” with you like that journalist.
70$ billion btw xD
Love the pic of Prince AlWaleed, lol. Shook down for 10s of billions, guest of the Ritz and under house arrest. Not sure what this has to do with Aramco, but interesting choice of pic.
Hmm AARAMCO worth $2,000 billion TSLA worth $60 billion. Hostile takeover?
Louis XVI disagrees.
Saudis with lots of cash is hardly a new phenomenon.
If anything, this is just moving them back towards the liquidity they enjoyed for decades. If that.
It’s good to be king.
Wahabi Muslims now flush with massive amounts of cash – what could go wrong…
No one trusts Saudi Arabia. That is why they had to list this on a local exchange. Any “real” exchange would require a level a scrutiny to their finances that the Saudi’s can’t abide.
stock market is just a big popularity contest in my opinion… Apparently Arab investors are most proud of their oil company… plus, lack of anything else to invest in other than a few centrally planned mega-projects… i spend $40 a week on exxon gas, and I only spend a few hundred dollars every 3-4 years on an apple phone + $15/month on apple itunes…. apple has larger market cap because they are more popular… people hate oil companies in the united states….thry are always killing baby seals and birds with oil sludge…
