Just after above endorsement broke, DJT, which was up 7% pre-market, but then down 10% this morning, was down about 8 %, when the Trump supports bid the price up -- presumably to show the Economist news was not important. Right now, DJT back down about 9%. The past few days there has been big selling, which I assume are some hedge funds that have their own polling data, showing Trump not doing as well as the polls would indicate. Meanwhile, current $32 put, expiring a week from today, is trading about $ 8.40, meaning the stock must drop to $23 to break-even. If Trump loses --whenever that is identified --DJT could open near zero, which is one reason for the steep put premiums.
Oddly, Britain also has free speech. Seriously, "allowed to endorse?" Separately, The Economist has many U.S. financial readers.
have you heard any objections on misinformation from the brits? would wsj allow putin to write an opinion piece?
So you equate a free press, comparing two candidates, with offering one of the most brutal dictators in human history an editorial in WSJ? Rhetorical, as you have made your positions clear.
