Derivatives had huge moves based on these announcements. Out-of-the money SPX E-mini puts went up 10x after tariffs were announced. Near-the-money E-mini calls doubled after today's announcements. These are zero-risk insider strategies.

SPY 530 calls for today went from literally 2 cents to $2, $3, maybe $4 if someone timed it right.

They're at $9 on my delayed screen. Obviously I don't have the optimal insider derivatives strategy at the tip of my fingers!
