Just like what happened before the 9/11 terrorist attacks in 9/11, an asset manager – in this case Austin Private Wealth LLC – took out massive short positions on Trump Media ($DJT) and Rumble ($RUM) the day before the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, assuming he would be killed and the two stock prices would tumble.
Austin Private Wealth reportedly shorted 12 million shares of Trump Media and 34 million shares of Rumble just one day before Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, of Bethel Park took aim at Trump during a political rally in Butler, Penn.

“If Trump were killed, Rumble would have tumbled and DJT would have collapsed, resulting in a windfall of profits, potentially in the billons,” wrote the Health Ranger in a post at Brighteon.social. “Not at all suspicious, right?”
(Related: Local police in Butler claim that snipers inside the building atop which Crooks tried to kill Trump did nothing to stop the attack despite knowing something was wrong a full 30 minutes in advance of it.)
Austin Private Wealth blames “clerical error” for questionable short positions
After the independent media picked up on the short positions and the strangeness of their timing, Austin Private Wealth attempted to explain it all away as a big mistake and misunderstanding – nothing to see here, folks, so just move along now.
Austin Private Wealth’s claim is that an “erroneous … multiplier was applied by a third-party vendor that increased the number of the shares by a multiple of 10,000 for all options contracts (not just DJT)” when the company supposedly only shorted $DJT by 12 contracts, or 1,200 shares.
“We deeply regret this error and the concern it has caused, especially at such a fraught moment for our nation,” the investment company said in a statement.
“We are committed to full transparency and maintaining the trust of our clients. As such, we are reviewing our internal procedures and our processes with the third-party vendor that assists with SEC filings to better understand how this happened and avoid similar issues moving forward.”
We are unable to confirm the legitimacy of this as Austin Private Wealth claims to have caught the “error” three days after the attempt was made on Trump’s life in Butler.
Back in 2001 just one week before 9/11, a similar situation occurred when a massive number of put options were purchased on American Airlines and United Airlines, the two airlines involved in the attacks.
The investors who purchased these put options were gambling that the stock prices for AA and UA would drop in the short term, which is exactly what happened following the 9/11 attacks.
“These investors netted a profit of at least $5 million after the September 11th attacks,” a paper from The University of North Texas explains.
“Interestingly, the names of the investors remain undisclosed and the $5 million remains unclaimed in the Chicago Exchange account. Why were these aberrant trades not discovered prior to 9/11? Who were the individuals who placed these trades? Have they been investigated? Who was responsible for monitoring these activities? Have those individuals been held responsible for their inaction?”
Once again, we are seeing similar Wall Street chicanery in association with the assassination attempt on Trump. And once again, it is unlikely that anything will be done about it as a a paper published by the University of Notre Dame found that mistakes on 13-f filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which is what Austin Private Wealth is claiming happened, are rarely, if ever, penalized.
