The derivatives market in metals is tied to all derivatives in commodities including energy. That market is now at more risk than ever of fracturing since the EU painted themselves into a sanctions corner.
The European Union has followed the instructions of the globalists and bankers to create a parallel natural gas market trading lucrative futures contracts centred in the Dutch TTF ( Title Transfer Facility ) which is the dominant EU trading centre for futures contracts in Europe setting the price consumers and businesses pay. By creating fear and another fake "emergency" after the "health emergency," and pushing an anti-fossil fuel "green agenda" they simultaneously profiteer, and crush demand for cheaper Russian energy. By refusing cheaper Russian NatGas the banking cartel profit more by buying limited and very expensive LNG, from the US for example, increasing profits for Western corporations. As consumers struggle to pay the exponential increase the result is chaos and misery throughout the entire European Union as prices skyrocket and inflation roars, especially reflected in unaffordable food and energy. Sanctions are the pretext, to again brainwash the masses, to blame an external fictitious threat. All this corruption is no accident. The puppets in the top positions in the EU parliament and ECB, and French, and German governments know exactly what they're doing, and if the middle classes dissappear so much the better. A return to serfdom and a reduced population is not a conspiracy theory. The Kings and Lords of antiquity ruled over their obsequious peasant classes which were easy to control. The middle class, which hitherto never existed, rose and fell during a brief 50 years during the 20th century, as a result of easy money in the form of credit underwritten by plenty of cheap oil to supply energy for industrial production and mass transportation. The middle class, long regarded by the elite class as "useless eaters" and a threat, have been systematically destroyed by the rentier class living on payments from investments and property, governments' plethora of taxes, the Keynesian groupthink induced cancer of inflation, and other pernicious forms of wealth extraction. If poverty didn't crush the middle class then physical obliteration by wars, hunger, and bio-weapons added to their misery. A deliberately published agenda ( the WEF comes to mind ) so brazen it should be obvious to anyone, not just those with a critical mind, and a discerning spirit. https://www.globalresearch.ca/europe-energy-armageddon-from-berlin-brussels-not-moscow/5792005
