“K-line drawing” caught in the act? Trump-linked accounts exposed for precise market timing
Odaily News: Buying on the first day of the conflict, bottom-fishing right before strikes were paused, and clearing positions before strikes resumed... Trump’s investment accounts have reportedly executed 23 “Buffett-level trades” over the past six months, with unrealized gains exceeding one million dollars.
It is reported that during the first six months of the ongoing geopolitical conflict, investment accounts linked to Trump generated substantial returns through active trading in energy stocks. These holdings spanned nine major players in the U.S. energy sector, significantly benefiting from supply disruption fears triggered by the conflict. A report released in August by the Democratic staff of the U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee (JEC) provided a higher estimate, calculating that Trump’s broader oil and gas investment portfolio has increased in value by up to $15.5 million so far this year.
The report quickly sparked political backlash. Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren publicly criticized Trump, stating that his initiation of the conflict with Iran this year directly drove the surge in oil and gas stocks—while his own substantial holdings rose accordingly. (CNBC)
