wildpixel/iStock via Getty Images A series of well-timed trades tied to major policy announcements during Donald Trump’s second term has drawn scrutiny from legal experts, who say the activity could point to potential information leaks, Reuters reported Sunday. A review of trading patterns ahead of key decisions involving tariffs, Venezuela and Iran found multiple cases where investors appeared to act just before market-moving news became public. These trades spanned options, commodities and prediction markets, often generating large profits in short periods. Experts say the timing and scale of these bets raise questions about whether some traders had advance knowledge. While not proof of wrongdoing, the patterns resemble what regulators might expect if confidential information were improperly shared. Officials have pushed back on the idea of misconduct, noting that government employees are prohibited from using nonpublic information for personal gain. Regulators, including the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, monitor unusual trading activity, though it is unclear whether any formal investigations have begun. Some market participants caution that alternative explanations are possible. Traders may have simply anticipated policy moves better than others or used complex hedging strategies tied to broader macro trends. The growing use of geopolitical expertise on Wall Street may also play a role. Still, enforcement in these areas remains inconsistent. Insider trading rules apply across many markets, but cases involving commodities and prediction platforms are relatively rare, and oversight of newer betting markets is still evolving. Several examples highlighted in the review stand out. In one case, options traders placed large bets shortly before a tariff policy shift that triggered a sharp stock market rally. In another, prediction market wagers correctly anticipated major geopolitical developments, generating sizable payouts. A recent oil trade worth hundreds of ...

Investors might not realize it, but they've been witnessing history since 2019.

Investors might not realize it, but they've been witnessing history since 2019. Over the S&P 500 's (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) 98 years, it's delivered annual gains of at least 16% for three consecutive years on three occasions. Two of those three occurrences are recent (2019-2021 and 2023-2025). Following in the S&P 500's footsteps, we've watched the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) and Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) each reach psychologically important plateaus: 50,000 for the Dow and 24,000 for the Nasdaq. Although history can't concretely predict the future, it does have a way of rhyming on Wall Street more often than not . That's what makes the latest rare feat for the benchmark S&P 500 all the more intriguing for investors. Continue reading

U.S. stocks ended Friday broadly lower, with selling pressure intensifying across sectors as investors weighed persistent geopolitical risks tied to tensions in the Middle East. The tech-focused Nasdaq Composite was -2%. At the same time, the benchmark S&P 500 was -1.5%, and the blue-chip Dow was -1.6%. However, the S&P 500 Health Care Index Sector ( XLV ) gained about 0.67% during the week. The top S&P 500 healthcare gainers and losers for the last week are as follows: Top Gainers: Merck & Co.

Merck will pay $53.00 per share, representing a significant premium over Terns' recent trading average, as it seeks to integrate the promising leukemia candidate TERN-701 into its hematology portfolio. The transaction is expected to be accounted for as an asset acquisition and close in the second quarter of 2026, resulting in a charge of approximately $5.8 billion, or approximately $2.35 per share, included in both second-quarter and full-year 2026 GAAP and non-GAAP results, Merck ( MRK ) said in a statement . Merck ( MRK ) has been pursuing deals to strengthen its pipeline, with CEO Rob Davis spearheading a strategy to diversify the company's portfolio ahead of the 2028 patent expiration for its blockbuster cancer drug, Keytruda. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Merck, through a subsidiary, will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Terns. Medtronic lowers 2026 earnin...

A once robust American anti-war movement is significantly weaker than it was in its heyday. The immensely unpopular war on Iran offers a real opportunity to rebuild it In 1964, President Lyndon Johnson asked Congress for authorization to use military force in south-east Asia. His resolution passed unanimously in the House, and only two voices dissented in the Senate. As for the public, 77% of Americans said they trusted the government to do what is right, and more than 60% supported war. It is common today to hear that the US war in Vietnam was unpopular, but it certainly did not begin that way. It took several years, billions of dollars, tens of thousands of deaths, and constant anti-war mobilization before Americans changed their minds. Continue reading...

Stefan Golaszewski, the creator of beloved sitcoms Him & Her and Mum, didn’t just draw from his own experience to write about baby loss – he also composed and performed the theme tune Will Stefan Golaszewski ever tire of watching people unload the dishwasher? “Gosh, you never know – it’s possible,” concedes the creator of beloved BBC sitcoms Him & Her and Mum. For now, however, Golaszewski’s brand of intense social realism remains as meticulous as ever. In his latest series, the quotidian acts that make up a lifetime – replacing the hand soap, leaning on the kitchen counter while folding a slice of ham into your mouth and, of course, unloading said dishwasher – are given just as much screen time as some of the most soul-wrenching experiences imaginable. Babies (he’s sticking with the does-what-it-says-on-the-tin titles) stars Siobhán Cullen and Paapa Essiedu as mid-30s married couple Lisa and Stephen. We meet them en route to a family function, yet when they arrive Lisa can only face Stephen’s relatives for a few seconds before fleeing the pub. Actually, it’s just one relative: his cousin’s new baby. We soon discover the pair have recently suffered their first miscarriage. Unable to share their grief and disappointment with friends and family, they are forced to rely solely on each other – not ideal considering Stephen’s attempts to comfort Lisa include an offer of a Solero and a trip to feed the ducks. The terror and cruelty of baby loss is all here, but Babies’ portrayal of our collective failure to address it is just as unsettling. Continue reading...

I rejected the church as a teen. But I’ve lately felt called to look for God – and my understanding has changed Two months into the pandemic, I began a practice I called “When I look for God”. With so much changing so quickly, I was looking to find space during each day when I could ground myself amidst the uncertainty. The previous five years had opened up a spiritual yearning spurred by a life-shifting moment while surfing when God became profoundly known to me. These encounters of grace began to happen with some frequency. I was both compelled and confused by this new awakening. God has always been elusive to me. I grew up Catholic, attended church on Sundays, went to catechism. I was baptized as an infant, received my first communion at seven, and was confirmed at 11. None of this brought me any closer to God. Continue reading...

Rich or poor, male or female, it’s always a struggle to balance work and family. We’re all wondering about the paths we didn’t take ‘I do feel I’ve wasted my life, really, living in a world of fictional characters,” said Ian Rankin – multi-award-winning author (more than 35m copies of his Rebus novels sold), knighthood for services to literature and charity, a man who achieves more in one year than I have in 51 – on a recent podcast . If you’ve wasted your life, Sir Ian, what about the rest of us? There was levity in Rankin’s delivery, but real feeling, too – an ambivalence about what his creative drive had cost him. “There’s big moments, big beats in my life that I just don’t have any memory of: holidays taken, first days at school for my kids and that sort of stuff, because in my head I was somewhere else,” he continued.

Two kona low storms dumped up to 50in of rain on Oahu, flooding fields and submerging equipment Eddie Oroyan’s farm was thriving when the storms hit. He and his wife had started LewaTerra Farm last year on a gorgeous stretch of land on the north shore of Oahu. They were delivering vegetables to customers in the community, selling at farmer’s markets and to local restaurants. Then, on the week of 10 March, a first kona low storm hit the island, bringing copious amounts of water, flooding their land and wiping out crops. Nearly all their papayas were gone. And the tomatoes didn’t survive. But the couple quickly began cleaning, replanting and tying down crops, confident that they would get back on their feet shortly. Continue reading...

Following the US-Israeli strikes on Iran, gas prices, grocery bills and mortgage rates have all climbed The US-Israel war against Iran has sent shockwaves through global markets, leaving many Americans grappling with a growing financial squeeze on everyday living costs. Following the US-Israeli strikes on Iran – prompting retaliatory attacks on US allies in the region and Iran’s decision to close the Strait of Hormuz , a critical maritime passage – costs have surged across the US. Gas prices, in particular, have spiked sharply , with the national average rising by roughly 30% over the past month. Grocery bills, mortgage rates and fertilizer costs have also climbed.

US stock indexes ended the week lower, marking its fifth straight week of declines as the war in the Middle East and threat of trade disruptions magnified stagflation concerns. US President Donald Trump extended a pause on strikes against Iran’s energy infrastructure into April, saying talks were progressing well. However, Iran pushed back, calling a reported US proposal to end the conflict one-sided and unfair. Higher oil prices are already pushing inflation up. For the week, the S&P 500 ( SP500 ) and Nasdaq ( COMP:IND ) tumbled 3.9% and 5.2% respectively, while Dow ( DJI ) booked a 2.8% fall. Across the Atlantic, the European equities ( STOXX ) ended the week 2.3% higher. On the data front, Eurozone composite PMI fell in March from the previous month and came in below market expectations, according to preliminary data. UK retail sales dipped slightly in February, performing just above expectations, while consumer confidence eased modestly. UK inflation remained at 3% in February, though the figures predate the recent Middle East tensions and may be outdated. In the week, London’s FTSE 100 ( UKX ) equities rose 0.5% while Germany ( DAX:IND ) and France ( CAC:IND ) markets surged 1.8% and 2.2%, respectively. Major corporate news from Europe this week: ASML ( ASML ) will supply advanced production equipment worth about $7.9B to SK hynix. The Asia-Pacific markets In the last week, Chinese markets ( SHCOMP ) added 0.2%, while Japan’s Nikkei 225 ( NKY:IND ) rose 3.7%. Japan’s inflation slowed from the previous month, with core inflation dropping below the central bank’s target for the first time in years.

Early last Monday, a burst of concentrated trades set off a week in which Wall Street and Washington were abuzz about the possibility that insiders have been using early knowledge of President Donald Trump’s decision making on Iran to lock in big profits. The moves , worth billions, hit the futures markets on Monday morning, just minutes before a social media post about the Middle East from Trump sent crude prices tumbling and equities soaring. In the conversation that followed, much of the scrutiny fell on the new prediction market platforms that have made it possible to bet directly on geopolitical developments, some with less oversight than others. The episode came amid a months-long push in Congress to rein in the nascent industry, with Democrats introducing new bills and the first Senate Republicans signing on to legislation imposing restrictions. A new academic study offered a glimpse at just how active insiders might be on Polymarket, the most popular venue for betting on global events. Researchers at Columbia Law School and the University of Haifa examined the blockchain ledger that records Polymarket trading, looking for patterns consistent with the use of nonpublic information. Over the last two years, the transactions they flagged generated profits of around $143 million. “The idea that someone would trade on national security information or information about upcoming terrorist activity — people thought that’s not even possible,” said Joshua Mitts, a law professor at Columbia and one of the co-authors. “Today what we’re seeing in these prediction markets is that actually it is quite possible.” In a separate analysis, one set of linked Polymarket accounts came up repeatedly over the last three months, turning $1.6 million in profits on an unerringly accurate set of bets on Trump’s moves in Iran and Venezuela. A review of the trades, first spotted by an on-chain researcher known as Andrew 10 GWEI, was independently confirmed by blockchain forensics firm Bub...

Bird feeders have come a long way since their inception in the early 1900s. These days, it’s not all that surprising to see feeders kitted out with cameras and solar roofs, two marquee features you’ll find on feeders from both BirdBuddy and Netvue. And while modern hoppers can command a pretty penny, Amazon’s Big Spring Sale has dropped the Netvue Birdfy Feeder to $135.99 ($124 off) and Birdbuddy Pro to $179.99 ($120 off), which are some of the best prices we’ve seen. At their core, both smart bird feeders are designed to help you keep an eye on your soon-to-be feathery friends, allowing for image stills, video, notifications, and AI-powered identification. Birdfy’s offering cuts corners on hardware to keep costs down, though. It features the widest viewing angle of any model at 155 degrees; however, the video quality maxes out at 1080p, whereas the Birdbuddy Pro allows you to capture crystal-clear 2K video (with slow-mo). The accompanying solar panel isn’t integrated directly into the snap-on roof like it is with the Pro, either, which means it doesn’t look quite as slick once set up. Netvue Birdfy Feeder Where to Buy: $259.99 $135.99 at Amazon (yellow) $259.99 $159.99 at Amazon (blue) Software-wise, both motion-activated feeders support 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and feature robust, user-friendly apps that can identify species and alert you when a bird is present. Birdbuddy’s is a bit more lively and capable if you’re willing to subscribe to Birdbuddy Premium ($69.99 a year), which unlocks additional info via an AI-powered chat, unlimited video storage, and the ability to track returning visitors, plus the option to view Birdbuddy feeds from around the world. That said, Birdfy’s bird recognition software is free for life — at least with the bundle on offer here — meaning you won’t have to routinely pay for a subscription just to access the essentials. Just be prepared for lots of notifications. Birdbuddy Pro (solar) Where to Buy: $299 $179 at Amazon $299 $169 at Birdbuddy

Véron Mosengo-Omba was target of varied criticism ‘I can retire with peace of mind and without constraint’ Véron Mosengo-Omba, the Confederation of African Football (Caf) general secretary, has resigned after repeated calls for his removal and at a turbulent time for the game on the continent . Mosengo-Omba said he was retiring but his departure comes amid a crisis of confidence in the organisation’s leadership, with a growing fallout over the decision to strip Senegal of the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) title and calls for an investigation into alleged corruption at African football’s governing body.
