Just minutes before US President Trump postponed the strike on Tehran's energy facilities on March 23, over $8 million in oil futures trading sparked an investigation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). After Trump's message, US oil prices fell by 13% at one point. According to transaction records reviewed by The Wall Street Journal, at least five companies have made profits exceeding $5 million. The investigated companies include Qube Research&Technologies, Forza Fund Ltd., and Totsa, the trading department of TotalEnergies.
