However... somebody's getting tipped off in advance of major geopolitical news events. Remember last August when Trump lied about phone calls with China on trade talks? When that lie or rumor broke, the financial markets soared. Somebody, or some people, apparently knew ahead of time because they placed big bets on the S&P futures markets.

If anything criminal comes out of this I won't be surprised. Cheating the markets to make money is very ... Trumpian, don't you think?

Trump was a day trader for a while.


I saw what he has been doing a while back. When the market was looking bad a tweet would come out.

Just last week. Trade deal announced, no documents, no agreement. he said 3 weeks for documents. We have heard that before, usually says 2 weeks.

China did not agree.

Nothing since.

Someone getting inside information from the crook in the WH.

It's pretty much a given that something hinky is/was going on.

Let's not forget, Trump got into trouble manipulating the stock market as a private citizen. Imagine all he can do with it now.
