Almost... the difference is they never created an apple, never owned one, grew it, purchased it, or actually did anything related to it... however they did profit on the speculation that you will continue to buy apples, create a fake demand for them, make the cost go up locally but not globally, so now you have to spend more to get the same apple, while they make more money from the forced price increase due to larger transfers of money.
