68. It is called market manipulation. There are rules against it. That is why they have to trade oil on
the "Dark Markets" off shore to avoid the FEDs. They borrow money from the FED at 0%.
Then they buy derivatives betting the market will go up.
Then they do "simultaneous trades"
(where two partners sell each other the same massive amount of an item but no money changes hands)
Then they cash in on the derivatives.

They gamble with our money. Heads they win tails we lose
