The SEC is the only agency that could get to the bottom of who did these trades — and they would have to want to know.
Alright, I think people knew of the tariff pause and traded it beforehand.

You can see before Trump posted "buy" on Truth Social, traders opened $QQQ $TQQQ and $SPY calls

RIGHT BEFORE THE NEWS, someone opened $SPY 509 calls, expiring TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those calls are up 2100% in one hour.

Paying an extortionist -- where do you think it ends? Do you think he honors his side of the supposed "deal"? Really?

Meanwhile, as Big Law ill-advisedly pays the protection racket, there's a huge need for lawyers to help regular people Trump is illegally targeting:

I keep puzzling over how Rubio thinks it'll bring PROSPERITY to kidnap gay hairdressers based on their tattoos & then pay $20K/year to detain them in a slave camp.

We could have spent that $6M on supporting trade with Congo instead, but Rubio has decided torture is better for profits?
