Stupid Fig Tree

What does Jesus do on Monday of Holy Week? He gets mad at a fig tree. That unfortunate Palestinian fig tree had leaves but no figs, which is not how fig trees are supposed to work. The tree looked fruitful, but held no satisfaction. Jesus takes His anger at the tree and goes to the temple to throw out the money lenders (with a whip). And I just want to ask if we see any parallels with the leafy tree not bearing fruit, and the money lenders in the temple? Anything today that seems to relate? Anything that Jesus might want to curse in this Holy Week?
