Coronavirus - Oil prices could fall below $10 a barrel

Oil prices have been hammered as the coronavirus has led to evaporating demand. With no planes in the sky and few cars on the road, demand has flatlined and marginal oil producers are starting to fail.

But in this episode, featuring content from the Bloomberg P&L podcast, we discuss why oil may yet fall to historic lows. We also look at potential opportunities in the stock market and ask just how painful the coronavirus-induced global economic hit is likely to be.
