Early Morning Trump Market Rescue

On Monday, investors let out a long sigh of relief as oil prices and U.S. Treasury yields retreated from highs, sparing the market from a crash. Behind this was an unprecedented market rescue by Trump—fabricating good news out of thin air. The key turning point occurred around 3:00 a.m. Beijing time, when Trump posted on Truth Social stating that there would be no attack on Iran tomorrow (prior to this, the U.S. and Iran had both rejected each other's new peace proposals). At the request of Qatari Emir Tamim, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the U.S. announced that it would not carry out the planned attack on Iran tomorrow. Serious negotiations are currently underway. If an acceptable agreement cannot be reached, an attack on Iran is prepared. After the announcement, U.S. stocks and gold turned upward, while oil prices, Treasury yields, and the dollar instantly fell. The market surprisingly canceled an attack it didn’t even know about, causing a surge and plunge. If the post had said “U.S.-Iran talks are making progress,” the market might have only slightly risen, as everyone is already exhausted from endless negotiations. He directly declared, “I was planning to completely bomb Iran tomorrow, I had the orders ready, but because the three Middle Eastern leaders pleaded, I temporarily pressed the button.” The highest level of creating chips is not to buy chips, but to fabricate a huge threat out of thin air and then remove it as a gift. Wall Street is now focusing on three markets: oil prices, U.S. Treasury yields, and stocks. Last night, Trump made everything develop in the direction he desired:
- U.S. crude oil fell but held above $100;
- The 10-year Treasury yield dropped below 4.6%, closing at 4.59%;
- U.S. stock markets fluctuated, with the Dow rising 0.32%, the S&P 500 falling 0.07%, and the Nasdaq dropping 0.51%. The Dow represents the past, the Nasdaq the future, and the S&P 500 better reflects last night’s market reality—slight decline.
It was thought that Treasury yields had already issued a warning last Friday, and Trump could stay quiet for a day, but unexpectedly, he outsmarted everyone. The timing was perfect—around 3:00 a.m. Beijing time, when U.S. stock liquidity begins to enter the late trading phase, extremely sensitive. When the Truth Social pop-up appeared, algorithmic trading had no time to verify whether “the U.S. is gathering bombers in the Persian Gulf,” they could only see the keywords: “no attack tomorrow” and “serious negotiations.”
