He noted that the government and the parliament are holding meetings and working side by side to find a solution to rescue the stock market and traders.
Meanwhile, Managing Director of Kuwait Investment authority Bader Al-Saad said at the end of the same parliamentary meeting that since funds in the national portfolio are belong to the Kuwaiti people then its investments should be "discreet and practical."
