Agree with all the other comments, super light on facts and tried to apply an ideological &quot;solution&quot; where there is no issue. Surprised The Economist printed it.<p>The Norwegians are sitting pretty on top of world&#x27;s largest sovereign wealth fund, which holds 1.3% of the world&#x27;s listed stocks. Their oil&amp;gas tech industry is taking a beating, yes, as are every nation and business who depend on the oil&amp;gas industry, but I don&#x27;t think the Norwegians will starve any time soon. If new revenue from their oil industry stoppe tomorrow they would still be alright.<p>I don&#x27;t see how there is a &quot;weakness&quot; in their model or how this calls for privatisation of anything. If anything, their SWF&#x27;s exposure to QE inflated stock markets is a bigger risk.
