Saudi threat to withdraw billions in US investments

That could easily become a big factor in the next downturn in the market. 750billion is a lot of money.
From their point of view, the risk of losing through lawsuits may be far more than making a bad investment in emerging markets/European/asian securities.
I bet their suspicions of US government intentions are probably also growing.
