Will Smith continues to face the consequences of slapping comedian Chris Rock at the Oscars. According to the news of The Sun newspaper, Netflix and Apple TV+ have decided to withdraw from the competition to produce the biopic of the famous actor.

Streaming services silently withdrew their bid for the rights to turn Will Smith‘s life story into a movie, according to reports. The film in question was to be based on the actor’s bestselling autobiography WILL, which debuted last year.

Saudi oil group Aramco pushed Apple out of the world’s largest market capitalization on Wednesday, May 11, as the Saudi giant’s shares were boosted by the recent rise in oil prices. According to Bloomberg, the market capitalization of Saudi Aramco, Saudi’s national oil company, reached $2.430 billion on Wednesday, slightly surpassing the iPhone maker, which fell to $2.371 billion.

Saudi Aramco’s rise to the forefront of the largest stock-market companies has also been made possible by the recent decline in technology stocks, which has recently hit Apple and all the big digital names. The Nasdaq has lost more than 25% since the beginning of the year due to a change in the monetary policy of the US Federal Reserve (Fed) in the face of inflation and the war in Ukraine. Apple’s title was $182 in early January, compared to $145.50 at the end of Wednesday.

Between IPOs at the end of 2019 and July 2020, the oil giant has a higher market capitalization than Apple.
