Al-Falih: Saudi riyal stable despite global volatility

All currencies fluctuated except the Saudi riyal, thanks to the Kingdom's smart economic policies. The debt rate in the international economy, even the leading countries, is increasing, while the Kingdom's is decreasing to 25%, he remarked on Sunday.

Al-Falih called Saudi Arabia's budget "historic" given global problems.

The minister said the UK had the world's fastest economic growth. In response to those who ascribe Saudi economic development to oil prices alone, he said the non-oil sector rose by 6%.

Al-Falih complimented the Kingdom's legislation, programs, and private sector empowerment.

He noted a 9 percent increase in spending and a surplus, which he called "unusual" at the level of global economies, especially in light of the coronavirus epidemic and subsequent economic shocks.

He said global investors want government stability and direction. Many Kingdom sectors are open to foreign investment. We prioritize high-impact investments, he said.

What is a Bid-Offer Spread and a Spread?

The difference between the prices to buy (offer) and sell (bid) an asset is called the spread. When trading CFDs, the spread is important because it is how the prices of both derivatives are set. Spreads are a common way for brokers, market makers, and other sellers to show their prices. This means that the price to buy an asset will always be a little bit higher than the underlying market. The price to sell will always be a little less than the price to buy. Spread is a financial term that can mean different things, but it always refers to the difference between two prices or rates. For example, an option spread is a way to trade that involves this. The way to do this is to buy and sell the same number of options with different strike prices and expiration dates. Bid-Offer Difference The spread that is added to the price of an asset is also called the bid-offer spread or the bid-ask spread. Bid-offer spread shows how much people want an asset and how much they are willing to pay for i...

TRADING SHOULD BE VIEWED AS A BUSINESS.

Traders, like every other business owner, must be disciplined. A written trading plan is an essential first step. Set up your own accounting system to track your trading results and compare them to the ones provided by your broker. All you need is a basic Excel spreadsheet with results for each day, week, and month. Include gross profit/loss, the number of trades, commission expenses, ECN fees, other costs, net profit/loss, equity (confirm that it corresponds to brokerage reports), and any other pertinent information. Use this information to make better trades. Look for trends in your performance and the relationship between your profits and costs. Your trading plan should include a list of all the different sorts of trading you want to undertake over the day or week. Successful traders do not simply open their charts and start trading. Before deciding to assault, they planned for everything that may go wrong. The most important thing to do is to plan ahead of time. For me, Sunday mark...

The Concentration of the Federal Reserve on the Labor Market

During his talk at the Brookings Institution in Washington, DC, on November 30, Federal Reserve (Fed) President Jerome Powell signaled a modest increase in the US basic interest rate as a choice for the next FOMC meeting on December 14.  This will take place on December 14. After four meetings in a row with hikes of 75 basis points each, expectations have now converged on an increase of only 50 basis points this time. The basic rate would finish the year in the range of 4.25% to 4.5% per annum, having begun the year at a level very close to zero in March of that year. On the other hand, Powell remarked that inflation in the United States is still at a high level. He gave an estimate that stated that inflation in personal consumer spending had been running at a rate of 6% per year up until the month of October.  In order to reduce inflation down to 2% on an annual basis, interest rates will need to be raised to more restrictive levels. It was noted that there is still more terr...
