Sorry I’m about to talk about cows again. But seriously, this announcement from Trump was nothing but a ploy to depress head prices on the Sept 1 sales. (We’ve talked before about how cattle sales work, I won’t bore you again, but 1st of month is a big deal.)
Why do I say it was a ploy? Because I can math. 300,000 tons of beef would mean 1.2 MILLION head of cattle would go to slaughter just for ground beef, no sirloins, no ribeye, no filet…if the whole cow was ground up, it would take that many cows.
That stock doesn’t exist anywhere on earth. What Trump said he would do, is not a thing which can be done. He’s just moving markets. By the time anyone can do the math, you’ve already lost $$$ on the steer in the feed lot.
And I say to the yeehawdists, I told you. You didn’t believe me. Why didn’t you believe me? Well, too late to listen now.#beef #us #marketmanipulation https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2026/08/26/cattle-ranchers-montana-reel-trump-foreign-beef/91440529007/

Yeah, right. Thump always lies & nothing he does benefits anyone other than himself & his “small … energy” cronies.
BBC: “Oil, gas and mineral lawyer Alexander Kuiper told the BBC the deal could be "very significant" but expressed some caution.
"This is definitely a headline to help with oil prices," he said, but added: "What we don't know, is whether or not those reserves turn into actual investment, and how long that investment takes to produce results."”

Note: These are high-frequency Wall Street #trading firms that are buying early access to trump's posts — think algorithmic-powered day traders, hedge funds, etc., not average joes.
These large Wall Street firms have info that others don't...
Senate Democrat Elizabeth Warren (MA) has referred to it as "insider trading," and Senate Dem Mark Warner (VA) introduced a bill to try to stop it.
Republicans have been "mostly quiet."

In fairness, it might have been nervous laughter, though, because everything is so insane.
The person who explained it all did stress that #trump is making money off of his social media posts in his current capacity of President of the United States. Also, #trading firms will make market moves based on trump's social media posts... & trump can drive #markets however he wants.
(apparently unchecked since trump also appoints the SEC chair)

"Several high-frequency #trading companies (Wall Street firms) have signed deals with Donald Trump's social media company to get early access to the president's posts. #Trump Media says it's signed more than 10 customer agreements worth up to $100,000 a month that will let some users see the president's Truth Social posts (inaudible word) before the public will."
#MyThoughts –
So that's #corruption & #MarketManipulation...The announcers laughed like it was funny

Here’s a whole bunch of credible-sounding words that completely miss the point of all this, which is of course to anyone who’s been paying the slightest bit of attention, for insiders to make bank by capitalizing on Trump’s #MarketManipulation.
The dude even sells premium access to this scheme of $100k/month, FFS! 🤦♂️

Trump is now charging to have access to his social media posts before they are published.
This is just unbelievable.

Stock markets are nothing but legalised betting houses. And the behaviour of speculators are identical to gambling addicts. Both stay entranced in the room despite knowing the house always win and the game is *gamed*. And the rest of the world stand there agape…#BanGamblingAdds #TearDownNeoLiberalism #Antifa #AntiOligarchy #NeoLiberalEconomics #RegulateFinancialMarkets #CorruptedAdministration #Nepotism #UnfetteredCapitalism #InsiderTrading #MarketManipulation #Résistance

Works like a charm. It's almost as if he is leading an oil cartel, not a country.

No insider trading? No market manipulation? For anyone else, that’d be a one-way ticket to prison. But hey, when you’re a Trump, the rules just don’t apply the same way.

Normally he waits until Friday after the markets close. Is he changing up the play here? 🤔

"Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron have been slapped with a class action lawsuit for price fixing and market manipulation of RAM. This is a big deal because these three companies together manufacture around 89% of the entire global DRAM market.
The suit says that “the DRAM oligopolists have simultaneously cut production, coordinated a pivot to HBM and exit from DDR3 and DDR4, and otherwise decreased and locked up conventional DRAM supply while prices charged up with mind-blowing scale and rapidity. Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron continue to squeeze conventional DRAM supply, simultaneously and publicly directing their resources towards less profitable-per-die HBDM – or in some cases, simply junking conventional DRAM supply channels together.”
The suit also claims that the three companies are aware that competitors can’t enter the DRAM market because the cost and knowledge required are too steep for newcomers to overcome. And therefore, they make decisions based on the unofficial market protection they collectively enjoy."
