OILX - Crude Oil Backwardation: Theory Facts And Myths
UBS AG London Branch ZC SP ETRACS REDEEM 22/02/2046 USD 25 - Ser B
This article is a follow-up to one I wrote a couple of years ago, "When Do Crude Futures Flip Into Backwardation?" I updated the statistics and added a section on price implications.
