\n

Saudi Arabia is pumping less oil and embarking on massive spending (cities of the future, major sporting events).<\/p>\n

The most important statistic to watch is its balance of payments, which\u2014as you can see from this chart\u2014turns negative<\/em> in 2024.<\/p>\n

From being a lender to the world, it has become a borrower<\/strong>, and this is happening even with oil averaging $80 a barrel last year (and $78 so far in 2025).<\/p>\n

This paradigm shift is here to stay. Trump\u2014who is visiting Saudi Arabia next month\u2014may face serious disappointment, as he hopes to leave with $1 trillion in investments.<\/p>\n

This Saudi pivot is just one more sign of a global dynamic undergoing major upheaval.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
