INSIDER TRADING?! Pop in oil trading BEFORE Trump’s social post sparks questions

From MSNBC.

Yesterday morning, someone or some group bought large amounts of stock index futures and sold off large amounts of oil futures just 15 minutes before President Trump posted online that he was halting planned strikes on Iranian power plants. Whoever made the bet likely walked away with a massive profit. Co-host of MS NOW’s "Morning Joe" Jonathan Lemire, MS NOW Columnist and Contributor Philip Bump, Veteran financial journalist Ron Insana and Punchbowl News co-founder Jake Sherman join Katy Tur to weigh in.
