MIDEAST STOCKS-SABIC lifts Saudi, CBQ weighs on Qatar | Reuters:
"Saudi Basic Industries helped lift Riyadh's stock market early on Wednesday after it reported a third-quarter net profit at the top end of forecasts, but a loss at Qatar's third- largest bank dragged that market lower.
Riyadh's stock index was up 0.4 percent after half an hour of trade.
SABIC, the Gulf's largest petrochemical producer, climbed 1.5 percent after posting a net profit of 5.22 billion riyals ($1.39 billion) in the three months to Sept. 30, down 6.8 percent from a year ago. Analysts polled by Reuters had on average predicted 5.05 billion riyals."
