Soros? Signature move, for him.
“suggests that a trader may have been aware of the coming attack”
If they can only point to one trader being involved, it doesn’t seem like a good case, since you might concievably find one trader taking any unusual position you could think of at any time. However, if they found 100 traders doing some coordinated short-selling, then I think the case that they had some insider knowledge would get a lot stronger.
Probably the same people who took out massive short positions just prior to 9/11.
Kind of like 9/11?
thousands of terrorists knew about it in advance. Certainly thousands more that supported and help facilitate the attack knew. Dozens of embedded journalists knew in advance. Egypt knew in advance.
The only ones that were clueless about the impending attack coming our from the 25 mile fenced in area was the Mister Magoo government of Israel and their Mossad.
Can anyone explain short selling?
I’ve never fully understood how it works.
You mean like cattle futures? Hillary is that you?

Maybe a time traveler. Have to be a little circumspect about winning every sports bet and being right all the time.

Gotta be Pelosi’s trader.
Something Soros would do.

I find it much more likely that members of Hamas, who obviously had pre knowledge of the attack, traded on the Israel Stock Exchange and made profits. The palestinians are evil, but they are not necessarily stupid.
