The assassination attempt plot thickens

[Reasonably Sane]

As with all early stories like this one, use your brain to determine the viability of this information. i.e. make of it what you will

HUGE SHORT POSITION FILED BY Austin company on TRUMP ORG DAY BEFORE ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT!

There is lots of information in the supplied links within the story regarding viability. Worth a cursory glance, at the very least.

Broader takes on the whole issue:

Soros-linked investment firm blames 'clerical error' for suspicious bet on Trump media stocks - Daily Telegraph NZ

The "soros backed" company and "clerical error" in the same sentence, caused me to do this:

None, apparently, Nobody seems too interested in the OP. My purpose was to provide the information. What people do with it is up to them. They can absorb, discuss, ignore, laugh or whatever they choose.

Fair enough.

Right off the bat, "Soros' Vanguard" is a clue that this is nonsense. Soros doesn't own Vanguard, nor is he even a shareholder beyond whatever investments he may have there. Vanguard and Black Rock are the two largest investment firms in the world. They're likely to have their fingers in everything.

Second, the fintel.io page only goes a week or two prior to the shooting. What does the historical data on short volume and prices look like? DJT has been shorted a ton.

Third, the firm claims this was a filing error and they shorted 1,200 not 12 million shares.
