More worrying are the corporations that were offered an ocean of cheap debt last spring and who used it to buy their own stock in order to pump the price back up. I'm afraid Exxon isn't the only one that will be delisted, reclassified as junk because of a high debt load and poor earnings.

There are several debt bombs all primed. Corporate debt is one of the more worrisome.
