Auditing Saudi Aramco's $2 Trillion Story: Charts

(Bloomberg Gadfly) -- Good morning! This is Fly Charts, the daily charts-only newsletter from Gadfly; sign up here. From a Toys "R" Us autopsy to PE's Asian salvation, here are four charts that tell you what you need to know in business today.

And don't miss Nir Kaissar on Bitcoin's fee problems: "If you want to know where cryptocurrencies are in their development, keep an eye on fees. When a new 'investment' comes along, investors are often too busy counting their anticipated bounty to care about cost. Shrewd purveyors predictably seize the opportunity to charge excessive fees. But reality inevitably falls short of investors’ expectations, and the focus eventually turns to how much they’re paying to invest."
