Anthony Scaramucci wants presence in Saudi Arabia; ‘bullish’ on Aramco IPO

Reem Abdellatif, Al Arabiya English Tuesday, 29 October 2019

Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci said he is keen on having a business presence in Saudi Arabia as the Kingdom pushes ahead with its Vision 2030 economic diversification and social reform plan.

“Directionally, when you think about social reform, commercial reform, the Saudis are moving forward with I think a very long-term plan,” Scaramucci told Al Arabiya English on Tuesday at the third edition of the annual Future Investment Initiative (FII) in Riyadh.

Scaramucci, who is also the founder of New York-based hedge fund SkyBridge Capital, said he is bullish on the upcoming initial public offering (IPO) of oil giant Saudi Aramco.

I thought this was interesting, are they having that "Davos in the Desert" now? I think so, FII? I don't know if it is the same and nobody needs to take the trouble to look....

And then, I saw Scaramucci teamed up with Lanny Davis to write an anti-Trump editorial in Wapo:

That's kind of depressing, so, I decided I didn't need to put that in editorials.....Scaramucci must be a keen investor, anyway, back to the story.

@TomSea - Not sure this has anything to do with Energy business, especially the screed about impeaching Trump in the Wash Post

Is Mooch betting on the Dems' Make America Dependent Again energy policy?
