Markets are big money big money don't move one place to another just like that it requires volatility and events.
Make ur bets Also have look futures options contracts volume and data to see on where larger funds making bets on.
One thing for sure trump buddies Will get rich again regardless of outcome.
Trump have turned his political power into manipulation of markets for sure his own buddies knows the outcome and are well priced in on right bet.
Also a lot retail buyers on defence stocks....well would be logical to collapse those and shake out retail to sell in loss.
Actually... your suggestion about "Trump's friends" is much more speculation than an fact, because I agree that some political decisions favor a some sectors of the economy, but their effects on markets must be much more complex and certainly "dispersed" between different sectors. But the reaction of stock markets, oil and defense assets has a direct and immediate (or precipitate) impact, something that, in my view, is also completely normal.
And the idea about the money only circulates during volatility... is true! meetings like this have always generated speculation and rapid market movements. Paying close attention to volumes and options is a good way to make money if you can land a good entry.
What about Bitcoin?
I think if this meeting generates fear or tension in traditional markets, then investors will seek protection in decentralized assets and that will probably be good for Bitcoin.
But if there's an agreement or sign of stability, I think they wuill migrate to traditional assets and leave BTC out.
This, of course, will have a short-term impact (weeks or a few months at most).
