US President Donald Trump ordered on 3 February the US government to create a state investment fund for the first time within the next year and said it could be used to buy TikTok.
And the countries have sovereign wealth funds and they're much smaller countries and they're not the United States.
Trump didn't give many details and it was clear how such an investment fund would work.
The United States is in a deficit, but the United States is in a deficit.
Such an announcement would also likely require approval from the congresses.
Details on exactly how the fund would work and finance it were not immediately available, but Trump has previously said that it could be financed through taxes and other smart things.
According to the International Forum of Sovereign Wealth Funds, there are over 90 such funds worldwide that hold assets worth over $8 trillion.
TikTok, which had about 170 million US users, went offline on January 18.
A day before a law requires that the Chinese owner of ByteDance either sell it or risk a ban coming into force.
After taking office on January 20th, Trump signed an executive order to extend the budget workload by 75 days.
Trump has said that he has been talking to several people about buying TikTok and that he will likely make a decision on the popular app in early February.
