BlockBeats news, on April 7, in the early morning local time, Iranian sources quoted unnamed sources saying that an explosion occurred in the Jubail Industrial City in the northeastern region of Saudi Arabia, which involved U.S. capital and was caused by a large-scale attack. Reports indicate that Jubail Industrial City is one of the world’s most important petrochemical production bases, with an annual output of around 60 million tons of petrochemical products, accounting for 6% to 8% of global production. The area hosts many major petrochemical enterprises and projects. Among them, Saudi Basic Industries Corporation is one of the main investors in the industrial city.


In addition, the Sadara project with participation from Dow Chemical Company of the United States, and a project jointly invested by Saudi Aramco and TotalEnergies of France, are also located in the industrial city. (CCTV)

The inventory warning from Acer’s CEO has further convinced him that the memory cycle has already peaked.
