沙特阿美IPO成全球规模最大IPO

据道琼斯12月5日消息，沙特阿拉伯国家石油公司(沙特阿美)周四把首次公开募股(IPO)发行价定在目标区间高端，使这家石油巨头的总估值达到1.7万亿美元，成为全球有史以来规模最大的IPO。

国有控股的沙特阿美称，公司将以每股32沙特里亚尔（合8.53美元）的价格出售30亿股股票，占该公司股份的1.5%，这一发行价位于30-32里亚尔的目标区间高端，总筹资规模256亿美元。

尽管如此，此次股票发行仍远低于沙特王储穆罕默德·本·萨勒曼最初设定的2万亿美元估值。据参与IPO过程的知情人士透露，这一估值还有可能让沙特中产投资者面临单一公司未来股市表现带来的风险，因为沙特境外和周边地区的许多机构投资者均认为，此次IPO过于昂贵。

Still, the share sale falls well short of the initial $2 trillion valuation targeted by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The shortfall also risks over exposing Saudi Arabia's middle-class investors to the future stock-market performance of align="justify">
