Were They “Getting Yippy” or Was Trump Manipulating the Market?

Over the past week, the world may have witnessed the biggest example of market manipulations in history – manipulation that can still immerse the world economy into recession, but it seems to have made some investors, especially those who read and acted in Trump’s social media, huge amounts of money.

I am not a financial investigation journalist, but I know when something smells like fish. What we saw from April 2 – during the week on which the tariffs were imposed by the United States almost the whole world, and then a week later came out of most countries, resulting in some of the largest stock market grips in history – such as Rotten Fish.

Senator Adam Chiff He urged to investigate the possibility of some large -scale insider trade, and California is supported by the support of his colleagues, Chris Murphy and Ruben Galega. In the house, a representative Alexandria Okosio-Cartes He demanded that her colleagues reveal her recent stock market deals.

What angered these legislators is a week of economic policy WIPLASH, which loaded the global market in uncertainty and raised doubts about the US reliability as a column of the international financial system.

Trump announced a “Liberation Day” on April 2 and introduced a number of feedback-nomadic tariffs either at the back of the envelope, or to feed certain simplified instructions on the chat-amal deficit in each country on Earth (with the exception of several Russian autorasions), tank markets.

This was quite predictable, because trade is at the heart of the international economy and, in many things, is the defining value of the value of globalized companies.

Two days after Trump’s introduction tariffs just between the falls in S&P 500 and Dow JonesApproximately $ 12 trillion evaporated. It was one of the largest two -day drops Over the last 75 years. According to my calculations, this is at a loss of more than $ 35,000 per person in the country.

Throughout the world, such a collapse of wealth has become interested in reducing the values ​​of pension accounts and education plans, and ultimately making it much more likely that the economy will recover from serious recession, which will lead to millions of people who will lose their jobs and livelihoods.

Trump talked tough, telling the investors not to panic, but promisingly the incredibly glorious results of his tariff wars. He talked hard to Wednesday, when the bonds that facilitate the borrowing began to be wound, the drop in the dollar accelerated and Minister of Finance and others According to the president, the world financial system was on the verge of the crisis. And then, like the farm, which has been hung on supermarket shelves for too long.

At 1:18 evening East Wednesday Trump came to The truth is social And she announced a 90-day pause at most additional tariffs outside the 10 percent basic tariff for almost all countries. The exception was China, which Trump raised the rate to the eyes 125 percent to clarify through the day that the tariff actually would be even more eyes that relate to 145 percent.

Predictably – as predictable, since the original market fell after the tariff announcement on April 2 – markets flew on Wednesday. Desperate investors, looking for any signs that “normality” is returning back into the stock, considering Trump’s ad, as if it was missile fuel. In the hour after Trump pressed the “posture” button, Dow Jones grew by almost 3,000 earring points, which lasted less than one day until the reality of the US-China Trading War was established, and the markets shed most of the profits in the route that took pairs throughout Thursday.

Many people and institutes who know when buying and when selling have earned a lot of money during a short market on Wednesday, buying a low and selling a high day that day, while it was still good. And important questions are revolving about all this. Indeed, a few hours before the cancellation of politics, Trump has posted“This is a great time to buy !!! DJT.” Push, push, wink, wink. Know what I mean ‘squatAs they said on Monty Python.

While Trump occasionally signs his truths social office with his initials, it seems worth noting that DJT letters are also a symbol of the stock market Trump media and technological groups. Its cost increased more than 22 percent on Wednesday afternoon, making the Trump family –Trump belongs to 53 percent of the company’s sharescontained in the trust of his eldest son –hundreds of millions of dollars In added value. Tesla’s total values ​​were also shot dead on Wednesday, as well as the importance of other Elon Musk enterprises. Spread through all their companies, Pure value Muscova jumped A marvelous $ 36 billion, AMAL’s total annual USAID Pre-Doge budget just the few hours after Trump pressed the “pause” button.

Many, a lot of investors seemed to take note of the rather open hints of Trump, which comes the pause. A few minutes before that pause was voiced huge spikes in the share of purchases In the main stock markets.

If I were a powerful mind politician to play the system on a huge, global scale, or to help my game into the system, there are many steps I would probably make the way there: I would like to seduce Fire of all independent ombudsmen In state institutions whose task is to monitor unethical or illegal actions. I would like to order the Ministry of Justice to get up Its anti -corruption units. I most likely would be doj Stop performing Provisions of the law on corrupting practice of foreign corruption. I would make an effort undermines independence Securities and exchanges commissions, and actually take control of it directly. I would break all the fences designed to stop mixing a personal business with my political force, and I will definitely make the representatives of the Congress of my party for the post of unhappy loyalty.

All this happened since January 20. Now I do not know exactly what went in the hour before Trump publicly announced the “pause” on the tariffs against all countries that are not called China, but I know he deserves the investigation. This week there is more than the breath of insider trading halls, as the leading Democrats in the House and the Senate have already noted in the calls for investigations. If Congress has to maintain any authority as a power factor for the executive power, it must claim its investigation. Too much goes to the card, including the trust of the integrity of the world markets to just clean these actions under the table.
