⚠️This is INSANE:
An unknown trader spent $12 million on S&P 500 call options just hours before Trump's ceasefire announcement on Tuesday, turning it into ~$35 million, a $23 MILLION PROFIT in a single day, according to ZeroHedge.
The trader purchased 6,800 lots of SPX 6950 calls expiring May 8, when the index was at 6,556.
Following the ceasefire deal announcement, stocks surged and the position exploded in value.
Meanwhile, in the oil market, investors placed a ~$950 million bet on crude prices falling, selling 8,600 lots of Brent and WTI futures just hours before the same announcement.
Oil dropped -15% to below $100 a barrel when the ceasefire hit.
This follows a similar pattern from March 23, when investors sold $500 million in oil futures just 15 minutes before Trump announced a delay on strikes against Iran's energy infrastructure, triggering another -15% drop in crude.
