On 18 November 2025, in the Oval Office, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said Saudi Arabia would raise its planned investment in the US economy to nearly $1 trillion over the next year, up from the $600 billion Trump had cited. The visit produced the US-Saudi AI memorandum and, the next day, chip-export approvals for HUMAIN. The figure is a pledge rather than a schedule of deployed capital.

## Key figures

- pledged US investment: $1,000 bn
