ukraine. but will they accomplish more than pointing fingers at russia? and diamond mining, turn things around for botswana now sanctioned on russia's gem trade. could give the industry an even greater boost. i'm christy. pleasant. this is d w business. well, it's over to the middle east where president joe biden has visited saudi arabia on friday. oil prices are a major concern back home in the u. s, and no one has more to say on global supply than re out. a crisis can also be an opportunity. as these 2 men known mohammed been said, mind the saudi crown prince and the crown prince of abu dhabi mohammed pennsaid no wonder they're in a good mood. their country's oil is more sought after than ever. crude prices of only just fallen slightly after staying stubbornly over $100.00 since the start of the war in ukraine. the enforcer that may be the last
1:18 am
opportunity for these countries to profit economically one more time and earn high revenues with oil production on the face of a global trend towards renewable energy. dr. marbella, fuck on, look at the the late leap in sentiment has been courting the attention of the vest . once again. he had been a pariah for years, leading a military coalition into the devastating war in yemen than the murder of journalists. shamal cush augi in which been said mon was allegedly directly involved. ah, only russia's president boot and warmed up to him and been said mon will not want to jeopardize that relationship. definitely is kind of a personal solidarity moment between them. that is definitely a policy and react today to seize the moment to send a message and to, you know, to show wide and clear what is actually true, that saudi arabia matters to them. the saudi royal family kept mostly friendly
1:19 am
relations with the us under president trump. the u. s. has been traditionally their most important ally, but been said, man has a cool relationship with his successor, joe biden. our saudi and abu dhabi leaders willing to budge on oil output for biden, for now at the saudi crown prince has played the crude guard cleverly re establishing his country on the energy market and himself as the pivotal actor on the world stage. well, for a market reaction to the significant visit, i wanna bring in my buddy young corta at the new york stock exchange either. yes. so we know that biden is likely to leave saudi without making a public announcement on the oil supply. but you're there at the exchange, tell us how have markets reacted to his visit. christy, they have not been any commitments, but they have been some remarks from joe biden after the meeting and he said he's doing everything within his power to make sure to increase demand in the united
1:20 am
states. well, i mean, you can't force the private company years to do so, but that's at least that's intention to try everything possible. if you look at saudi arabia that's a bit different. the crown prince theoretically could order to just pump oil more oil, if that it technically possible. there's a lot of guessing if saudi arabia could increase production even if they wanted to with the no real commitment, but at least some intention to increase production on both ends. so the price actually didn't increase a bit and the friday session for the week oil is down by about 7 percent, but that's not because of the meeting, but because of global recession fears ok, yeah. well, we know that oil and energy is obviously a major factor playing into the u. s. and the global economy right now. we also saw the 2nd quarter financial results for banks out this week. can you tell us, what did those results say about where the economy is headed?
