A lot of these frackers are headed for bankruptcy.
- Drilling for shale is very capital intensive.
- Hence a lot of these companies being highly leveraged/no cash flow.
-That was cool a few years ago when there was an abundance of cheap/PE financing available but it's been drying up.
-Also a lot of my friends who work in the industry have told that most of the easy fracking locations have been taken. They have had to drill subprime locations in order to meet lender demands.
Texas is about to feel it, but my Costco gas is about to hit a $1.
