Taco Tuesday on Monday?

Not surprisingly the TACO trade occurred on Monday (instead of TACO Tuesday) after Trump denied offering Iran sanctions relief in exchange for nuclear concessions.

Ironically (or NOT) the morning headlines about “Sanctions Relief” triggered a sharp drop in oil prices.

This begs the question:

How many investors (Cough! Insiders, Cough! Trump advisors/family, Cough!) bought puts on oil before the news broke? And closed out their position before Trump posted on his Social Media AFTER THE CLOSE, the following:

 

 

TACO Monday… or else as Trump calls it: “HOAX” is added to the list of ongoing TACO Trades afforded by the crazy swings in oil prices via Netanyahu’s war with Iran.

Seriously, when are the SEC investigations going to take action over the obvious manipulation of the oil markets?

Oh, Wait!

Never mind…Trump appointed high level department heads in the SEC and the CFTC after he came into office.

You could classify this as “easy money at the taxpayer’s expense” and that would probably be an understatement.

And we’re not trying to sound like a broken record here, but, like we said last Wednesday, there seems to be an obvious pattern here with the TACO trades.

As if on schedule, Trump’s Tuesday morning speech to the UN delivered another TACO Tuesday Trading* opportunity for the energy Boyz to stuff their coffers on the price of oil falling.

Some of you may be thinking:  How long will this be allowed?

The answer is simple… As long as the regulators are willing do “look the other way” the theft will continue.

But how is that possible?

It is one of Wall Street’s and DC Boyz long standing policy (with lots of wink, wink, behind the scene) that the regulators step in after untold fortunes have been made.

They will get on their high horse and rant about how they “are shocked, I tell you…shocked!” and will not stop until justice has been served.

Unfortunately, those are the code words that the perpetrators of illegal trading are going to be forced to pay a fine (which goes into the regulators pockets) often in the neighborhood of billions of dollars.

Not surprisingly, none of the guilty parties will be charged with any crime.

So, the penalties are more like a license to steal fee.

Recent examples include Hong Kong Shanghai Bank paid a $5 Billion fine (license fee) for money laundering.

And let’s not forget how, several years after the 2008 meltdown, FIVE TIME FELON JP Morgan paid over $30 Billion in fines…and not one person was charged with a crime.

This begs the question:

If They Can Pay Billions in Fines, How Much Money Did They Make on Their Illegal Trading?

We’ll probably never know the answer, but you can bank on the fact that the shenanigans will continue (pun intended) but with different names like TACO Trade.

Share this with a friend…especially if they are constantly surprised that oil prices continue to swing wildly and haven’t figured out why.  They’ll thank YOU later.
