Folks, these companies can still offer free food. At smaller companies in NY that don't have a cafeteria but want to keep the employees in for lunch they give out a seamless allowance. It works quite well. Not sure if it would scale to

Futures are opening for trading in the next two weeks on regulated US exchanges with daily / weekly USD cash settlement and central clearing. For every long futures position, someone else is short. I think that's a lot safer way t
