n the last 10 minutes of trading at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange on Friday, September 13, someone got very lucky. That’s when he or she, or a group of people, sold short 120,000 “S&P e-minis”—electronically traded futures contracts linked to the Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index—when the index was trading around 3010. The time was 3:50 p.m. in New York; it was nearing midnight in Tehran. A few hours later, drones attacked a large swath of Saudi Arabia’s oil infrastructure, choking off production in the country and sending oil prices soaring. By the time the CME next opened, for pretrading on Sunday night, the S&P index had fallen 30 points, giving that very fortunate trader, or traders, a quick $180 million profit.

Check out the Kashogi murder. That top in oil still hasn't been tested. To the day (after). Trump backed MBS in return for an oil guarantee. Wallstreet got wind of that pretty quick...

Looking at the chart, "they" were clear to drop bombs for 2 full DAYZZZ

Back to your original point tho.....I notice the big market moving events usually happen on the weekend. Whenever major shit happens on the weekend it stinks. Wallstreeters are prepositioned on Friday for the Big Move, that gaps the market open on Monday. IOW nobody else can get in. They knew it was coming because .... it was pre planned. Just like 70% of the shit we see these days. #FakeNews. CIA contrivances and/or other nations Intel agencies etc. etc.

Kind of like the big put buyers before 9/11.

I have been trading the sp futures since it was below 200 and this sort of thing started happening in the bush seniors days. At least that is when it became blatant, It has everything to do with covert government agency money. This is not a conspiracy theory it's for real happening. I seriously doubt Trump had anything to do with the deep state that has been operating for decades.

Funny. They blame President Donald Trump for everything but, Barack Obama legalized insider trading for members of Congress by passing a law and signing it. It removes the requirement that members of Congress have to declare they have financial interests in stocks with business before Congress! They were trading stocks with business before them. Watch the 60 minutes special on insider trading by members of Congress if you can find the video! Extreme liberal hypocrisy! What is new?

Doubt anybody got "filthy rich" on this play.

1. The gap move was only ~ 1%.

2. For anyone who could afford and who made this play, it likely wasn't a large part of their portfolio.

So now they are pitching insider trading after so many failures (Russia, Stormy Daniels, Racist, Sexist, White Supremacist, Caging children, Ukraine).

They won't stop, they will come up with something new until Trump gives up.

Imagine having your head this deep in the sand.

I think the majority of people who don't call others names when they disagree are all about fed up being quite, reserve, polite and are about ready to say fuck all you idiot communist. But that's just a guess on my part.

This sort of demonstrates my point. It's McCarthyism 2.0. If you're against Trump you're not a Real Conservative (TM), and therefore clearly a communist (not that you called me a communist, but you see my point).

I could get into the nuance of why Trump has lost me and nearly every other self identifying libertarian but it's really not worth it. Trumpers always plug their ears and call you a lefty when you disagree, no different when you disagree with left wing policy and get called a "right wing extremist". The most hilarious thing is Trump supporters think they are different than the lefty extreme. Sad, really. I guess it demonstrates the average level of education of both voting blocks. Horseshoe theory is alive and well.

I'd like to not worry if my president tweets something insane on twitter and sends us into an irrecoverable economic melt down when the rest of the world gets tired of his shit. If I knew he would be this bad for the look of the country I would've voted third party. Lesson learned!
