      Israeli assets are immoral but the fossil fuels that made Norway rich and are killing the rest of the planet are totally fine…

    2. Title is a bit misleading. Not divesting from all Israeli companies, just ones that don’t pass a certain ethics requirement. The Parliament specifically rejected a blanket ban:

    3. Behind a paywall so can’t read specifics. Headline I guess is meant to sound like it’s a feel good story. But specifics are a bit murkier based on other articles on the subject I found online. 

      They had 61 Israeli companies that they were invested in before this, and divested from 11 completely. “The fund is now taking a closer look at the remaining 50 Israeli companies in the portfolio and will report back to the finance ministry by an August 20 deadline.” https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/boards-policy-regulation/norway-sovereign-fund-expects-sell-more-israeli-stocks-over-gaza-west-bank-2025-08-12/

      Article does go on to say that “the government has repeatedly ruled out divesting from Israel as a whole on the grounds.” 

    4. So…the same companies with the same valuation now have their prices knocked down for a discount?

      Seems like the perfect buying opportunity for those that can invest in overseas companies.

      I wonder what Bill Ackman thinks about this. Might be licking his lips.
