  • Saudi Arabia is likely to cut billions of dollars in spending on some of its biggest development projects, and place other plans on hold, as the kingdom grapples with the scale of its vast economic makeover. The sprawling desert development known as Neom is expected to be allocated 20% less than its targeted budget for this year, according to people familiar with the matter. Standard Chartered's Carla Slim speaks with Bloomberg's Joumanna Bercetche.

      Because they can charge a lot of money for these dreams, and the rulers don't want to hear a no anyway.

    It is funny to see a lot of project lead in Saudi Arabia working on these mega projects are Europeans or Americans, yet none of them educate the Saudis that the projects is not feasible. Saudis and other middle eastern companies do not understand that instead of making cities, they should focus on building industries.

    Sell bonds, inflation goes up liquidity for short term project, rates go up as more people want better rates for bond, debt quality goes down, sell more oil to cover the debt payments, oil prices goes down.
