I can’t say for sure, but I doubt that contracts that caused a puny $10 million loss for one company would be significant enough to affect the world market much.

Folks, this ain’t the first one.

This is one in a long string of brokers who either had full permission to jack up the price of crude or were caught when not given permission by their company to speculate on the company account.

Most companies have profited from jacking up the price and then selling short when the pressure dropped - meaning that they made money on the way up and made a decent profit on the way down.

Happens all the time and they profit and YOU lose.

Color me skeptical that the spike was triggered so easily. The timing was too convenient for swaying an election, the effect was too massive. The spike was the match that lit the housing fuse and the current deepening depression. It is more likely that a group of billionaires who desired a puppet in chief, manipulated the market intentionally with the help of America's wealthy enemies and launched a clandestine financial Perl Harbor strike.

Buying off an entire government and the press is not cheap, but they pulled off with your money!
