A deal for a stake in WaterBridge Resources highlights the rising importance of businesses that handle the lakes' worth of briny, polluted water that fracking extracts along with oil and gas

Singapore sovereign-wealth fund GIC has bought a stake in WaterBridge Resources LLC in a deal that values the Houston-based handler of oil-drilling wastewater at nearly $3 billion including debt, according to people familiar with the matter.

GIC bought 20% of the company from Five Point Energy, a Texas investment firm that started WaterBridge in 2016 with $200 million of seed money, one of the people said.

Gee, ya think? The current model of for-profit healthcare and insurance will surely feel the pain of Medicare for all, but they will just have to pivot and find out how to make money in the new landscape.
