<\/a> Ultra-low rates are driving investors hungry for yield into the riskiest types of debt<\/strong>, the Wall Street Journal<\/a> reports. Faced with paltry returns on most speculative-grade debt and tightening spreads, fund managers are buying into corporate debt with the lowest credit ratings \u2014 and driving yields down even further in the process. Bonds rated triple-C or lower had offered an extra 2.79 percentage points of spread at the start of the year but thanks to the buying spree, this had dropped to a 20-year low of 1.51 percentage points in July.<\/p>\n

Aramco slashes Asia crude prices as production ramps up: <\/strong>Saudi Aramco cut October prices for Asia by more than twice the expected amount in a sign that the world\u2019s biggest oil exporter is looking to compete for a greater market share, Bloomberg<\/a> reports. Arab Light crude, the company\u2019s main oil grade, has been discounted by USD 1.30 a barrel to a premium of USD 1.70 more than the regional benchmark. With Brent crude up 40% this year and OPEC+ last week deciding<\/a> to add another 400k bbl\/d to the market in October, Aramco seems to be taking a more aggressive line on pricing as it fights to export as many barrels as possible before domestic demand likely drops off in the fall.<\/p>\n
