Recall no one knows how much the Kingdom owns, because its tied up in various entities.
Thus - the question from Musk.
Did Al Waleed just out that number?
And, didn't we see that his assets were seized by Bin Salman while he was held up at the Four Seasons?
Exposure by tweet?
Unsure I agree on that posit - but - hostile takeover territory - notice that Elliott is #10 on this list. (Recall that group in the BassPro/Cabelas activist team)
More in play than just Bin Salman and Musk.

U.S. Air Force General O’Shaughnessy would like to provide satellite communication to the Arctic via SpaceX Starlink and OneWeb

The U.S. military has awarded contracts to SpaceX Starlink and OneWeb to test and asses commercial satellites. They will test out both companies' internet-beaming constellations to keep military platforms connected. Including hooking up internet terminals to war fighter airplanes. Signal from space is more reliable than signal coming from terrestrial internet infrastructure.
Why was the Library of Congress archiving all tweets?
https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/12/26/573609499/library-of-congress-will-no-longer-archive-every-tweet
Since 2010, Library of Congress has been archiving every single public tweet: Yours, ours, the president's.
But today, the institution announced it will no longer archive every one of our status updates, opinion threads, and "big if true"s. As of Jan. 1, the library will only acquire tweets "on a very selective basis."
The library says it began archiving tweets "for the same reason it collects other materials — to acquire and preserve a record of knowledge and creativity for Congress and the American people." The archive stretches back to Twitter's beginning, in 2006.
But as anyone who's been following along can attest, Twitter and the way it's used has changed since then. First and foremost from a collection perspective: the sheer number of tweets.
"The volume of tweets and related transactions has evolved and increased dramatically since the initial agreement was signed," the library explains in a white paper accompanying the announcement.
The library doesn't say how many tweets it has in its collection now, but in 2013, it said it had already amassed 170 billion tweets, at a rate of half a billion tweets a day.

Beattie is on the show tonight, too.
Interesting discussion.
GS is going to be working all weekend.
The MA team and the lawyers and accountants are going to be doing what I would call a 'due diligence' event. Lots of work that will be done the next 72 hours or so.
Until then we can all speculate - because Prince A. isn't the final answer.
Much more to come.
