**Excerpt:**
“In early 2025, a series of high-profile stock sales by corporate executives—including Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg and Oracle’s Safra Catz—raised eyebrows as they preceded a market downturn triggered by Trump’s tariff announcement. Zuckerberg alone sold $733 million in shares weeks before Meta’s stock plunged 32%, sparking debates over whether insiders acted on advance knowledge or mere coincidence.
