It's how it works. You don't own one. You own 5% of twenty things, derivatives in ten others, and one chunk of money in a hedge fund that has you diversified into literally everything.
Its not a conspiracy. Nothing is behind closed doors here. It's literally 'diversify your investments'. The first thing literally any competent investment advisor tells you.
But ownership is much more abstracted now, so shares aren't just shares, they're bundled and derived, until derivative bundle derivative product bundle derivatives are 10% of your portfolio. It's literly just a matter of class now. The actual money doesn't matter.
