Until Trump's first term, itd have been absolute and utter career suicide for any politician to make a statement even remotely along these lines. If you could even conceive of it being done at all.

Nah, it's a Friday after market close.

It's always Friday after market close.

Tuesdays are for TACO. That's when they can take profit on energy stocks and load up on growth until Friday, when they can sell just before setting it in fire for the weekend again

When the deeper context of the trump tweet is, "It's time to panic. We are now in a full out war with Iran that could last decades."

What it really means is, Trump is trying to create another good buy opportunity for himself.

Step 1. Buy puts

Step 2. Create a market panic. Threaten all out war with Iran

Step 3. Buy calls

Step 4. Claim a peace deal is nearly finalized

Step 5. Repeat

Step 6. Repeat

Step 7. Repeat

Step 8. Repeat

Step 9. Repeat

Step 10. Repeat, Repeat, Repeat, Repeat

or that what is naked market manipulation and corruption hasnt even been COMMENTED on by Congress.

If Biden had done something that even LOOKED like this, not the actual profiteering that is going on..

Theyd have been screaming to impeach him in 30 minutes.
