A fake news report on X claiming President Trump was considering a 90-day tariff pause briefly sent global markets soaring. The S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow Jones all experienced significant gains, as did Bitcoin. However, the White House quickly debunked the story, causing markets to reverse. Despite being false, the incident highlighted market sensitivity to tariff changes and the potential for significant gains from even a temporary pause. This reaction emboldened some observers, suggesting the possibility of future market manipulation through similar announcements.
