My Spidey senses are not just tingling... there is truly something Rotten in the White House.
Here is what is bugging the crap out of me. Trumps actions yesterday are dangerously close to being party to insider trading with his du***ss "it is a great day to buy stocks" tweet premarket. If anyone acted on that info, they have some serious explaining to do or they may find out what Martha Stewart did. The SEC does not have any sense of humour when it comes to market fraud, which insider trading is. There are counterparties to trades. They got damaged yesterday. The tape has all the details. The W5 so to speak.
Now one can argue that it is a real co-inky-dink and well some folks just decided yesterday was a good day to go long. Ok...
But there is a problem. A big problem. Trump was in the Oval Office high fiving some folks after the huge upday in the markets. Again... somewhat benign. But one of those was the Chairman of Schwab Brokerage.
So what do you think the chances of a random meeting in the Oval with the Chairman of a company who trades in Securities on a day like yesterday?
Time for the Ethics Commissioner and the SEC to start digging and fast.
My gut feel/spidey senses. Donald has just landed a whole bunch of folks in very hot water. Trump may have "Presidential immunity" however that may not even be the case. But anyone who took a bite of the "apple" may just find out it is poison.
