Is Glencore The Next Lehman? The World’s Largest Commodities Trading Company Is Toast

‘Are we about to witness the most important global financial event since the collapse of Lehman Brothers in 2008? Glencore has been known as the largest commodities trading company on the entire planet, and at one time it was ranked as the 10th biggest company in the world. It is linked to trillions of dollars of derivatives trades globally, and if the firm were to implode it would be a financial disaster unlike anything that we have seen in Europe since the end of World War II.

The stock price was down nearly 30 percent on Monday, and overall Glencore stock has plunged nearly 80 percent since May.
