Frequent precise trading occurred before major policy announcements from the Trump administration, with multiple experts calling for a thorough investigation.

Gate News reported that on March 29, during Trump's second term, trades strategically placed before the announcement of significant policies may have brought millions of dollars in profit to some traders. Multiple legal experts stated that these trades should be investigated to maintain market fairness and determine if there was any information leakage. According to Reuters, prior to a series of key decisions made by the Trump administration regarding tariffs, Venezuela, and Iran, there were apparent trades suspected of being pre-positioned in the market. These trades involved different types of markets and assets, such as options, commodity futures, and prediction markets. Andrew Waisman, an insider trading expert at UCLA School of Law, stated that these trades appear very suspicious. Although the number of cases is limited, these patterns align precisely with expectations—if government officials and their friends trade on information advantages, such situations are likely to arise. Eitan Gorman, former director of enforcement at the CFTC and former federal prosecutor, noted that such trades typically attract regulatory attention; however, insider trading laws in the commodity markets are relatively complex, and the relevant field still lacks precedents.
