"Would very much appreciate Saudi Arabia doing their IPO of Aramco with the New York Stock Exchange. Important to the United States!" Trump tweeted from Hawaii, ahead of a trip to Asia.
The Aramco IPO is expected to be the largest in history, raising around $100 billion in much-needed revenue for the kingdom.
Aramco, which controls Saudi Arabia's massive energy assets, plans to list nearly five per cent of its shares in the stock market.
CEO Amin Nasser said in an interview with CNBC television in October that the listing venue "will be discussed and shared in due course."
Saudi Arabia has posted $200 billion in deficits in the past three fiscal years due to the slump in global oil prices.
