  • Suspicious Trading Precedes Major Trump-Era Policy Moves on Iran and Venezuela
    March 29, 2026, 7:41 AM EDT. Unusual trading activity has preceded key U.S. policy announcements during Donald Trump's presidency, raising concerns over potential insider information leaks. On March 23, 2026, $500 million was wagered on Brent and WTI crude futures moments before Trump delayed strikes on Iran, triggering a sharp oil price plunge. In February, over $679 million was wagered on the timing of strikes and the removal of Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, with some investors profiting over $1 million. These bets, placed on prediction markets like Polymarket, sparked calls from lawmakers to ban wagering on military actions due to the risk of privileged knowledge. Earlier, a $410,000 profit was reportedly made betting on the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro before a U.S. raid. These events underscore growing scrutiny of financial market activity tied to geopolitical developments.
