Stay informed on the latest Truth Social posts from Donald Trump (@realDonaldTrump) without the doomscrolling. Consider it a public service for your mental health. (Why?)
- David Schoen was hired to lead Jeffrey Epstein's defense 9 days before Epstein died.
- Epstein sought Schoen's advice for months prior to his death.
- Epstein had no information to hurt President Trump.
- Schoen specifically asked Epstein if he had information that could harm President Trump.
The statement relates to a past criminal defense and a claim regarding a former president, which does not directly impact current economic policy, corporate earnings, or the financial stability that would move the S&P 500.
The post focuses on a past domestic legal matter and a claim regarding a former president, containing no threats, ultimatums, or military references relevant to international conflict escalation.
- Commodities: No impact on Oil (WTI) as the post does not discuss supply, demand, geopolitical tensions, or economic growth. No impact on Gold (XAU) as it does not introduce new market uncertainty, inflation concerns, or safe-haven demand.
- Currencies (Forex): No impact on the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) as the post does not relate to monetary policy, economic data, trade, or capital flows. The dollar would not be treated as a safe-haven asset based on this content.
- Global Equities: No expected sentiment shift for European (e.g., STOXX 600) or Asian (e.g., Nikkei) markets as the post is a domestic U.S. legal claim with no international economic implications.
- Bonds (Fixed Income): No 'flight to safety' into U.S. Treasuries is likely as there is no new market uncertainty or risk introduced. Consequently, their yields would be unaffected.
