#Oil



And they tell us about the market, etc. In reality, Trump and his team are making a fortune.

🤨 Someone shorted oil at $950m before Donald Trump announced the ceasefire!

Just hours before the US-Iran ceasefire announcement, unusually large trades took place in the market – 8,600 Brent and WTI futures contracts worth approximately $950 million.

Immediately after, Donald Trump announced a two-week ceasefire – the market reacted instantly. Oil prices (Brent and WTI) plummeted by about 15% and dropped below $100 per barrel.

Interestingly, such large trades are usually broken into smaller parts and spread out over time to avoid moving the market. But here, everything happened in one block – which is extremely rare.

In March, a similar bet on $580m was made just 15 minutes before another Trump statement – at that time, oil collapsed by about 15%.
