The rising conflict between Saudi Arabis and President Trump could cause an escalation of actions between the two countries.

Since this incident kicked off a couple days ago, most looked to the oil situation as a way for Saudi Arabia to retaliate. Oil prices were up on Monday over fears that the Saudis would cut oil production, sending prices soaring. This is viewed as the most likely response from the Saudis.

Actually, this is only one of three options they have. The second is if they decide to buy arms from another country. Since the United States is the largest arms manufacturer in the world, Saudi Arabia gets lots from them.

The third option could be devestating. The Saudis could opt to dump the U.S. debt that it holds.
