And now, the corruption.

I'm sure we can trust that nobody on the Iranian side of the insiders with information might have capitalized on it.
It also bears mentioning that nobody ever calibrates these "huge trades" against what happens on other days. Maybe they're as uncommon as is implied. Maybe not.

Iran and members of its government are sanctioned pretty heavily. They wouldn’t have NYMEX accounts with hundreds of millions of dollars in credit.
A big investment bank can do a billion notional in oil markets but they’d split it up into a bunch of trades so as not to move the market. They wouldn’t be working on a 90m shot clock at 3:40am.

Obviously they wouldn't have to do it directly. Presumably you don't think that Trump or someone in his family is directly behind that trade. And I'm not going to take your word for it that these trades are all but unheard of except right before Trump makes a big announcement. Maybe they are, but I won't be taking your word for it.

The Trump administration made a billion dollar deal with Kazakhstan opening up the largest Tungsten deposits in the world to an American company. The deal was made in NY with Howard Lutnick in person and
the big guyTrump on the phone.That American company? 20% owned by an investment firm operating out of Trump tower, beneficial owners one Uday and one Qusay Trump.
Who arranged the financing? Why Lutnick’s Cantor Fitzgerald, now run by his sons.
Good times.
I know, I know. But the paintings.
