Least that is my thinking and take. And I am guessing the world of Derivatives, what Warren Buffet once called, The Real Weapon o f Mass Destruction, is in large part to blame. Who is to say that the contracts on the futures market are not offset a dozen other ways with the secret and mostly hidden derivative contracts. Just way over my experience and thoughts, but that is my sneaky suspicion.
2 +2 = 5 in this brave new Financial World. And if one does not at least entertain that idea, in my opinion they will get their investment stolen right in front of their very eyes. Or worse.
Which this video graphically demonstrates. May seem a little ‘far out’ but then, most things I am seeing these days would have been thought blasphemous in America just ten years ago.
