阿美石油公司取代蘋果,成爲最有價值公司大綱

Apple is toppled by oil giant Saudi Aramco as the most valuable listed company.

石油巨頭沙特阿美石油公司取代蘋果成爲最有價值公司。

In the largest initial public offering in history, a state-owned oil and gas behemoth in Saudi Arabia became the most valuable publicly traded company in the world.

沙特阿拉伯國有油氣巨頭公司首次公開募股規模成爲史上之最，將成爲全球最有價值上市公司。

Saudi Arabian Oil Co., aka Saudi Aramco, has just priced its shares at $8.53, which the Wall Street Journal reports is on the higher end of its target range. That figure would give Saudi Aramco a staggering valuation of $1.7 trillion, overtaking Apple's current market value of $1.15 trillion.

沙特阿拉伯國家石油公司，又稱沙特阿美，股價定爲8.53美元。《華爾街日報》報道稱這一價格是目標價格範圍中的高價，使沙特阿美估值驚人，高達1.7萬億美元，超過了蘋果公司目前1.15萬億美元的市值。

Having raised $25.6 billion, the IPO's dollar value also easily eclipsed the current record-holder, China's Alibaba, which raised $25 billion back in 2014.

此次IPO融資256億美元，其美元價值也輕鬆超過了目前的紀錄保持者——中國的阿里巴巴，該公司在2014年融資250億美元。

Toppling American and Chinese tech giants in the record books is clearly a symbolic coup for Saudi crown prince Mohammed bin Salman, but as R-euters points out, the valuation will still fall significantly short of his sought-after goal of $2 trillion. (Of course, it's not too late to start a $300 billion GoFundMe.)

打破中美兩國科技巨頭的記錄對沙特王儲穆罕默德·本·薩勒曼來說顯然是具有象徵意義的壯舉，但《路-透社》指出，這一市值明顯低於他追求的2萬億美元的目標。（當然，現在開始在衆籌平臺GoFundMe上籌3千億美元也不晚）。

Saudi Aramco began trading on the Saudi stock exchange Tadawul on December 11.

沙特阿美於12月11日開始在沙特Tadawul證券交易所開始交易。
