catenavi@lemm.eeto News@lemmy.world•Trump accused of ‘market manipulation’ with tariff pauseEnglish42·1 month agoHe made the announcement at 1:18, but there was a high volume spike in SPY at 1:02. He then introduced some friends, like Charles Schwab, in the white house later and said they had made billions. This crash was also the first time MTG bought stocks.
Should be an SEC investigstion with actual consequences for once. Probably won’t be, but there should.

I agree. I’m optimistic, but very cautiously so.
American reporting says the organization has US-backing and Israelis agreed to it. It also says the organization is failing to explain their ability to adhere to humanitarian laws or how involved both governments will be.
Israeli reporting says it will be multiple civilian-ran aid stations spread around Gaza, each responsible for about 300k people, with IDF “overseeing it from a distance.”
Another new source (I believe it was Palestinian, but I’d have to double check) says it involved an agreement between the US and Hamas, which they believe to be a signal the US will be changing how it navigates the complex political climate of the region.
The only consistency between the reporting seems to be: there is a new organization, they do intend to provide food and medicine, all parties agreed to this though to what extent is unknown, and Israel isn’t thrilled. When you keep in mind Israel just killed another 80 people after these talks, it’s pretty rational, I think, to be hopeful they get aid, but assume it will end, at the risk of sounding crass, with civilians being target practice for the IDF after they make up a fictional attack.
