BHP should have held IO prices up ..Now OIL falls will add to their pain .
Bad Karma for BHP ..as it feels the impact of Falling commodities from Oversupply..

So, what is the absolute lowest price oil can be produced for in the U.S.?
Consider this—fracking last boomed in the U.S. back in the mid-1980s, when a barrel of oil fetched around $23.
That is equivalent to around $50 a barrel today, when adjusted for inflation.
That fracking boom went bust after prices fell to around $8 a barrel, which is worth around $18 in today’s money.
With oil last week hitting $63 a barrel, it seems that prices have a lot more room to fall before things get really scary.
