Investors can refer to research reports for professional insights, but this news originates from an Associated Press report dated August 1, indicating that former President Donald Trump's Truth Social platform is launching a high-speed information service called "Truth API" today. This service charges Wall Street trading institutions for rapid access to Trump's social media posts, raising concerns about insider trading, conflicts of interest, and the use of public office for private gain.

The report states that Truth API charges up to $100,000 per month, primarily targeting high-frequency trading firms. Since Trump frequently uses Truth Social to announce policies on tariffs, wars, central bank leadership, and other major decisions, these posts often trigger immediate volatility in stocks, bonds, currencies, and commodities. Critics argue that even if posts are theoretically released to the public simultaneously, paying clients can still act faster than ordinary investors through quicker data interfaces and automated trading systems.

Recent reports highlight that Trump is increasingly naming specific publicly traded companies in his posts. In April, he praised Palantir Technologies, leading to a temporary surge in its stock price. Later, after congratulating Intel for "excellent performance," Intel's shares immediately rose in after-hours trading.
