BREAKING: Just five minutes before Trump's announcement to halt the attacks on Iran, massive trades reportedly hit the market. In one move, $1.5 billion in S&P 500 (ES) futures was bought while $192 million in oil (CL) futures was sold. These orders were 4–6x larger than anything else at the time. The trader seemingly made huge gains. Unusual.


















@ClarkeMicah @DailyMail I don't agree with you (& I usually do). Iran had it coming, it murders its own people & sponsors terrorism worldwide. I grieve for all innocents caught up but I hope the Iranian people, thanks to the courage of the US & Israel, can soon be free of their terrible rulers.





Iran's missile capacity is far beyond what was assumed. If Iran can strike Diego Garcia, then Europe is also within range. This is worth keeping in mind before Europeans join the war, especially as Russia may have some targets for Iran to respond to 4 years of European attacks on Russian territory with Storm Shadows and other weapons. These wars are connected and we could already be in a new World War. Now is the time for diplomacy and de-escalation.


Reporter: Lindsey Graham has asked for you to reconsider the American basis in Spain, in Germany, after what they have done in the Strait of Hormuz. What do you think? U.S. President Donald Trump: "Well, it deserves. He's right about asking that. And I think NATO's gone down a long way because they haven't, I mean, they should be helping with the strait. They get much of their energy from the Strait of Hormuz. And if Lindsey Graham said that, and don't forget, he was the big NATO guy for a while, and now he's not. And a lot of senators and congressmen, they were very upset with the fact that NATO has done nothing."
