Oh no! Are we going to have bailout Dow Chemical now too?
Kuwait decided on Sunday to scrap a deal to form a $17.4 billion petrochemical joint venture with U.S. company Dow Chemical.
The cancellation of the deal, which had met opposition in Kuwait’s parliament, was acknowledged Sunday by Dow and is a blow to the largest U.S. chemicals company. Dow had planned to use the proceeds to repay a large part of $13 billion in debt it will have to shoulder once its acquisition of rival Rohm & Haas closes, which is expected to be in early 2009.
Hell, we own everything else already, why not a chemical company too?
