I don't think that Trump is running some sort of scheme but as he relaxes the tariff (at least for some countries) in the future, it is going to look like that the below steps were rules of the game.

Step 1: impose tariffs.
Step 2: wait for the stock market to fall.
Step 3: buy stocks low.
Step 4: cancel the tariffs.
Step 5: wait for the stock market to climb.
Step 6: sell stocks high.
Step 7: repeat, repeat, and repeat — while the country burns to the ground.

sarcasm, conspiracy of the left, do you? Stay in the center for better perspective and deeper understanding. Buffet said non of what you asserted. Watch the video again.

Trump ignites ‘insider trading’ accusations after global tariffs U-turn


US president posted it was ‘a great time to buy’ on social media just hours before pausing tariff impositions



Donald Trump is facing accusations of market manipulation after posting on social media that it was a “great time to buy” just hours before he made a dramatic U-turn on his trade war that led to big rises in stock markets around the world.

Shortly after US markets opened on Wednesday morning, Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social: “THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!! DJT”.

Less than four hours later, he shocked investors by announcing a 90-day pause on additional trade tariffs on most countries except China, sending share indexes soaring.

Trump does not usually sign off his post with his initials. Those letters happen to be the same as the ticker for Trump Media & Technology Group, the business that controls Truth Social, whose stock shot up by 22% on Wednesday.

The timing of the US president’s posts and subsequent huge share jumps has sparked accusations of market manipulation. The Democratic senator Adam Schiff has called for an investigation, saying: “These constant gyrations in policy provide dangerous opportunities for insider trading.

“Who in the administration knew about Trump’s latest tariff flip-flop ahead of time? Did anyone buy or sell stocks, and profit at the public’s expense? I’m writing to the White House – the public has a right to know.”

The Democratic senator Chris Murphy also wrote on X that an “insider trading scandal is brewing … Trump’s 9:30am tweet makes it clear he was eager for his people to make money off the private info only he knew. So who knew ahead of time and how much money did they make?”

The New York Democratic representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called for all members of Congress to disclose any stocks they had bought in the past 24 hours. “I’ve been hearing some interesting chatter on the floor,” she wrote on X. “Disclosure deadline is May 15th. We’re about to learn a few things. It’s time to ban insider trading in Congress.”

When asked by US reporters on Wednesday evening when exactly he arrived at his decision to pause the tariffs on most countries for 90 days, Trump said: “For a period of a time. I would say this morning. Over the last few days, I’ve been thinking about it.”

However White House officials have argued the shift was part of the strategy all along, with his press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, arguing it was his “art of the deal” at work.

Several investors have used volatility in the stock market in recent weeks as a buying opportunity. The US representative for Georgia, Republican and Trump ally Marjorie Taylor Greene, disclosed that she had made several purchases on 3 and 4 April – days when there were sharp market falls after Trump first detailed his “liberation day” tariffs on 2 April – including shares in Amazon.com and Apple. Shares in the technology companies rose by 12% and 15% respectively on Wednesday.

small knowledge is very dangerous :lol: :lol: the above is the list of an average layman farmer will do in the west. a Real market genious with insider information will do one thing just before step 2.

Buy option contracts using margin at a high price ( probably a month ago). these contracts are massive number of shares. when the market falls, buy the same number of shares with his real money and close the margin contract with the cheaper options he bought. In the end, he will be instant multi millionair without spending a penny.
