JSE slips through the cracks at 18 000 level, slide continues - Crude hits $50

Brent Crude is trading at $50.60. You may think it's good news. Cheap crude now means all those alternative industries that got legs when it was above $100 (think our local wind farms, the electric cars in production) now face bankruptcy.

The JSE is down almost 4% as job numbers around the world continue to plunge. This is the beginning of a long recessionary period.
