American Corruptialism

This Isn't Trading. It's Theft from Your Retirement. 

Third, we need to stop pretending we don’t know where the arrow is pointing. The pattern is consistent, it’s one-directional, and it reads like a screenplay. Surges of suspicious trading show up right before presidential actions that only the President and his closest circle could know were coming. The President’s own family holds financial interests in multiple prediction markets at the center of these scandals. The President’s own company — his name on the ticker — swings wildly on his own posts, posts he makes at moments of his own choosing, using words he personally selects. When every coincidence cuts in the same direction, it stops being a coincidence. It starts being a scheme. And you don’t need to be a prosecutor to see it.
