That would imply all financial markets are unbiased, not political, and not out to exploit and maximize profits.
Scrooge McDuck pulling an ouroboros from a magician's hat comes to mind but I don't think that's the best analogy. Too drunk to come up with something better.
Just as they can shape the market, I'd imagine they can also shape the "random noise" of the market so that no one can actually gain - unless they have the illegal inside scoop.
Imagine if there was a magic number, say pi, and that every 3.14... days you'd find the "real" number of the market (averaged, making excuses for late and early "corrections"), and one could actually properly work well with that factual figure. That would be nice and clean, but taking it further, you take that clean number and encrypt it with the Enigma and mix things up. At this point we're in sci-fi Cryptonomicon territory. Might as well just lock out the sheeple and occult it as all need to know.
Fuck those fuckers.
Buy gold and bury it in your basement under 1cm of concrete for fast emergency extraction. Or better yet - tell everyone you're doing that but bury it in someone else's basement.
