Energy Bond Risk Soars To Fresh Record High As Stocks Slump To 20-Month Lows
The S&P 500 Energy sector stocks are down over 12% year-to-date, tumbling over 3% today to fresh 20-month lows. The spread (or risk) of high-yield energy credits surged again today, breaking above 850bps for the first time... The overall high-yield credit market is being dragged wider by this contagion as hedgers try to contain the collapse that is possible. For now, the S&P 500 remains entirely ignorant of the fact that over a third of its CapEx was expected to come from this crushed sector...
High-yield energy sector risk is exploding...
and stocks are imploding relative to every other sector...
and for now, the S&P remains ignorant...
Stocks just dumped to catch down to credit weakness on the day as even investment grade credit is getting hurt...

Here are the facts, per Deutsche Bank:
US private investment spending is usually ~15% of US GDP or $2.8trn now. This investment consists of $1.6trn spent annually on equipment and software, $700bn on non-residential construction and a bit over $500bn on residential. Equipment and software is 35% technology and communications, 25-30% is industrial equipment for energy, utilities and agriculture, 15% is transportation equipment, with remaining 20-25% related to other industries or intangibles. Non-residential construction is 20% oil and gas producing structures and 30% is energy related in total. We estimate global investment spending is 20% of S&P EPS or 12% from US. The Energy sector is responsible for a third of S&P 500 capex. 35% of S&P EPS from investment and commodity spend, 15-20% US
In short, while nobody knows just how many tens of billions in US economic "growth", i.e., GDP, will be eliminated now that energy companies are not only not investing in growth spending or even maintenance, being forced to shut down unprofitable drilling operations and entering spending hibernation territory, the guaranteed outcome is that US GDP is set to slide as the CapEx cliff resulting from Brent prices dropping below the $75/bbl red line under which shale is broadly no longer profitable will offset any GDP benefit unleashed from the "supposed" increase in consumer spending.

So I presume JPM are holding the Oil derivative bag?
US Taxpayer gets that bill
If the derivatives take a crap even the sheep will notice.
The first air filled bubble is leaking the Fed's hot air. More to come...
No, they, and the other TBTF primary dealers have passed that bag over to the taxpayer already...
LOL!!!
Nice to know the composition of future US jobs will change from high-quality energy positions to cocktail waitresses at strip clubs (that take tips in US food scrip)
I'm not keen on seeing burly oil workers taking it off at strip clubs.
I think we are in a lot of trouble.
If the money isn't good, what kind of strippers do you think you'll see?
Strip Club?
What is this 1972?
Chaturbate is a little safer for the young female suburbanite with $72,000 in student loans. All u need is a computer, willing participants, and a Sharebuilder account with direct access to the S&P 500. Let it ride baby. Now there's a nice plan to pay off those debts.
Wonder how many correlations can be broken before it all comes down?
They are in the process of discovering any correlation breakdown, causes a crash.
the S&P 500 remains entirely ignorant of the fact that over a third of its CapEx was expected to come from this crushed sector...
Yeah, like the SnP is actually affected by fundamentals anymore.
Janet's buying the Emini
So much for the US replacing Russia as a gas and oil supplier to the EU.
Well we certainly are the buyer of last resort.
Too bad no one really needs the shit anymore...
This shit is going to break one way or another. Hedge accordingly. Going Tepper long below 62. What I cannot figure out is if the Saudis informed the bankers prior to the crushing blow. I am curious how the banks were positioned, though I'm certain that HF's were positioned long when it dipped below 90. This will be a blood bath come EOY closing.
Good questions, but I am wonder whether or not one could get a significant tax break if one were to claim certain losses...
That's why we have tax lawyers but considering the big players in the game I imagine there are 'holes' in the tax code....
High yield is High risk baby....and they are about to find that out....but beware of GS selling you a bunch of oil patch loans right now....the squid will sell their mothers if they could
Shhhh.... the "R" word must never be mentioned.
How about the "c" word ("collapse") or "p" word ("panic")?
Take THAT Vlad!
Oh, wait....
Who are we kidding, no one is actually allowed to default or go bankrupt anymore...
At least no one important......

"Risk"... now there is a funny word in the new normal.
yes, much akin to the word "minority"...
The reason the S&P 500 has not fallen is because the central banks only know how to buy.
A bunch of banks imploded on some folks.
Double stars! Bailouts for everyone!
THATS THE SOUND OF THE OIL FRACKING INDUSTRY IMPLODING!
First the oil price comes down then the stock prices drop but they are still paying those dividends (you think to yourself) so I'll just hang on!! Then they cut their dividends and the share prices really get killed (I've seen this game played before) better sell all those oil assets and buy some real investment insurance!!!
Unlike the western central banks war on the precious metals, Saudis actually have the physical oil in their war on oil!
HMMMMMMM! Lets see now- demand for gold and silver skyrocketing! Demand for oil dropping like a stone- or that guy on the pole (or so were told)! where do you think we go from here!
