S&P lowers outlook on Saudi Arabia due to plunge in oil prices | Reuters:



"Standard & Poor's lowered its outlook on Saudi Arabia to "negative" from "stable" as a result of the steep decline in oil prices.



The oil-rich country's fiscal position could weaken as a result of its dependence on oil, the ratings agency said.



"We view Saudi Arabia's economy as undiversified and vulnerable to a steep and sustained decline in oil prices," Standard & Poor's said in a statement on Monday."
