    Why the oil pit needs to be closed down, traders sent back to McDonalds

    Dollar down and oil up are not corollaries. The futures markets exist and are wildly popular because of many reasons, as many as there are futures markets, in fact. You are discounting all the farmers that trade, the cereal, etc companies that buy deliverable contracts, the big banks that...
