According to ICE data, the crude oil futures market showed clear anomalies before Trump's key post on Iran that triggered sharp oil price volatility — the timing window of large-scale short position liquidations was highly consistent with the message release time. The market is questioning whether "front-running" or information leaks occurred in advance.



Current oil prices have become the "master pricing switch" for global assets, with everything interconnected. If critical information is leaked ahead of time and major capital can position in advance, it not only damages ordinary investors' interests but also undermines the fundamental price discovery mechanism. Consider this: if every geopolitical event is accompanied by "front-running" traces, who would still trust the price discovery function?

After Trump's post, oil prices plunged over 14%, with gold and bitcoin rebounding across the board — this should be the market's normal reaction to peace expectations. But if this volatility is built on information asymmetry, then the so-called "market reaction" becomes a tool for major capital to harvest liquidity.

More terrifying than oil price volatility itself is the market's crisis of confidence in information fairness. The crypto market just experienced regulatory framework clarification from the SEC and CFTC; traditional commodity markets should not devolve into "gray zones for information games." Fairness is the bottom line for all markets.
