On Tuesday morning, Brent crude futures fell below $100 a barrel, swinging about $40 in little more than a week. Brent traded as low as $97.50 a barrel by 9:12 AM ET.

In afternoon trading some of the losses were recovered. WTI settled 5.78% lower at $103.01 per barrel, with Brent finishing the day at $106.90 per barrel, for a loss of 5.1%.

“While a default would be symbolic, it seems unlikely that it will have significant ramifications, both in Russia and elsewhere,” said William Jackson, chief emerging markets economist at Capital Economics, in a Monday note.
