Trying to look at the timing of the Trump 100% Tariff tweet and the Market decline, It looks to me like SPY started going down at 10:56AM but I can't find the time of his Tweet. Just wondering if we're seeing any insider action.

    Did the market start going down before the Tweet?

      Maybe 1 min head start, info below from chatGPT:

      Here’s the screenshot / excerpt of the Truth
      Social post:
      “Donald J. Trump Truth Social Post 10:57
      AM EST 10/10/25 – Some very strange things are happening in China! They are becoming very hostile, …”
      X (formerly Twitter)
      So the hint post was timestamped 10:57
      AM Eastern on October 10, 2025.

      There was a new account that shorted bitcoin 30 minutes before the tweet and made 88 million dollars

      Looked to me like the stocks I track were on a downtrend the day before. I don’t trade spy, but it’s been teetering to my eyes for weeks. Wonder what practical impact the banks being closed Monday has on things

      spy did move slightly before the tweet but that’s kinda normal. algorithms and large desks often react to keywords or early chatter before we even see the post. unless there’s clear volume spikes or filings it’s hard to say it’s insider trading. timing differences of a few minutes happen all the time

      lol. You think he is a true patriot that respects the constitution and the laws . Corrupt to the core and is here to make money for his family and friends . There should be VERY STRICT laws to restrict this corrupt elected officials from involving in any kind of business while in office !

      If democrat ever get back into power and don’t president corruption and self dealing a felony subjected to life in prison I give up. Of course they won’t touch Trump or his people but as at least hold the next monster accountable.
      BTW yesterday they announced that they’ll be building a military base in Idaho for Qatar. This will cost us billions but no worries they did give Trump a $400 million jet. Trump should off market alerts I think people would defiantly pay $1,500 a month for that service.

      Of course we’re seeing insider action. Corruption is basically ATH, 52-week high if you will

    8. On a 4 hour us500 on TradingView. Back to 10/23, you see big boy selling. Everything from 10/23 to 10/10 was the blow off, especially with the headline that international banks were calling for international stablecon (not stablecoin) after the open. Might take out 6765.2, the ath, 6808 makes more sense but there’s not much more upside.

      It was Trump’s tweet that caught your attention. But he was just bringing the market’s attention to what China was doing. All you idiots blaming Trump for this are just blinded by your left political leaning.

      Bro, I’m pretty sure he has a conversation before he send any tweets.
      Like “Alright, I’m going to send this tweet, do you think itll crash the mrkt? I think it will, Pam, you should start selling your stock now……
      …..Did you sell it already? Ok, cool, Tweet sent!!!”

      I woke up last morning and saw on the news that Trump did not win the Nobel Peace prize. Immediately thought that the moron in chief was going to have a rage attack and do something like more tariffs on EU and went ahead and shorted the market- bought puts. A couple of hours later that just happened and I ended the day making a 1000 bucks. Nothing amazing but it’s just crazy how the market is now based on just one demented old man’s whims.

    12. Xi and Trump have a meeting this month, and on Thursday China issued notices on an expansion of rare earth elements, the US also imposed sanctions on a few Chinese firms. Given these things, and the historical Friday or Saturday release of bad news that has been happening for decades the Trump tariff outburst is super predictable.

      That being said, yeah I’m sure Trump allies got advanced notice and pigged out.

    13. Yes

      Google already 2 weeks ago started to decline. Amazon, Microsoft are in decline for 2 months.
