"Stress" no crédito privado e petróleo atiram Wall Street para o vermelho
Os principais índices caíram todos mais de 1%, influenciados por fortes quedas no setor da banca, depois de o Morgan Stanley e a Cliffwater terem limitado as retiradas de capital após pedidos de resgate de fundos de crédito privado. O petróleo escalou acima dos 100 dólares por barril e voltou a pressionar o sentimento dos investidores, que parecem antecipar que a guerra está para durar.
