## Trump's 'Great Time to Buy' Claim Hours Before Tariff Pause Raises Insider Trading Concerns

Authored by latintimes.com

President Donald Trump's post insisting it would be "great time to buy" shared hours before announcing a tariff pause has sparked concerns of possible insider trading.

Just three hours prior to the announcement, Trump had posted to the same account, "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!".

Stocks began skyrocketing after Trump's declaration, with the S&P 500 climbing over 5% and the Nasdaq 100 up almost 8%.

Prior to the pause, the stock market had been unstable, with plunges over the last several days leading economists to worry about a possible recession.

However, the two posts' close succession were noted by social media users, who began raising concerns on whether insider trading could have occurred.
