Foreign media: Insider trading suspicions loom, White House instructs staff not to participate in market predictions.

CoinFeed reported on April 10th, citing the Wall Street Journal, that just hours after US President Trump abruptly announced a halt to attacks on Iran last month, the White House warned staff against abusing their authority to make bets in the market. Sources familiar with the matter revealed that the White House Office of Management issued the warning on March 23rd. Earlier that day, Trump announced the decision to suspend airstrikes via Truth Social. About 15 minutes before the sudden policy shift, a mysterious surge in trading activity occurred in the futures market; Dow Jones market data shows that over $760 million worth of oil futures contracts changed hands in less than two minutes. Recently, three accounts on the Polymarket platform profited over $600,000 by accurately predicting the timing of this week's ceasefire with Iran.
