Have you access to the full article? It seems to me the authors are assuming that stock traders have access to the full, reliable data about the prospects for oil, but that such information is hidden from energy economists, and they're then saying "we mere humans have to assume the traders have set the right price for long term prospects". Even if traders have (illegal) inside information, then it's not reasonable to assume they have all the inside information.
Maybe I shouldn't 'present conclusions', but I think I'm more pointing out the massive obstacles to the article's hypothesis being remotely trustworthy. We need the answers to how they overcame the obstacles before it's worth listening to.
