Federal Reserve insider Nick Timiraos recently confirmed an important event: Trump released the December employment report data at 8:20 p.m. on Thursday night. By that time, the White House economic advisory team had already obtained the full report, but the Bureau of Labor Statistics had not yet officially published it the next morning. More notably, the data released by Trump was highly consistent with an internal version containing various revisions—these revised figures had not been disclosed to the public before. This event reflects the information asymmetry in the US economic data release process and provides some reference for market participants to understand the policy-level economic situation.

Here we go again, new tricks in insider trading
Trump played it tough, leaking information before the data was even made public
This is the information game of the American empire, retail investors always find out last
I've long been used to it; the market's reaction speed can never keep up with the pace of power

Haha, this is a typical insider trading atmosphere... The White House gets the data in advance, how can the market compete fairly?
---
It's the same old trick, official data hasn't been released yet, and Trump leaks it first... This move is truly brilliant.
---
So, retail investors are always the last to know, the information gap is so huge.
---
Wait, the correction values weren't even made public before he used them? Isn't this just a disguised way of cutting the leeks?
---
Playing information asymmetry with US economic data is quite interesting...
---
Timiraos, this journalist, must be trying to make a big splash. Dare to break such news, really bold.
---
The problem is, now that it's known, so what? Whether you lose or not, you still have to lose.

Wow, this information gap is incredible. Did the White House release data early? Retail investors are still sleeping, and the market has already been whipped once.
