WTI Crude Crashes Into The $50s

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2014-12-11/wti-crude-crashes-50s

Zee overnight stabilitee (and brief dead-cat-bounce this morning) has turned into a renewed bout of selling pressure and for the first time since July 2009, WTI has broken below the $60 level. Canada Heavy is trading $42.10 (down almst $4 today!), its lowest since April 2009. As Deutsche Bank warned last montha drop in the oil price to $60 a barrel "is likely to push the whole HY energy sector into distress,"and sure enough - Energy credit spreads are wider once again, now at +952bps.
