TechFlow news, on June 4, according to Jinshi Data report, CNBC financial analyst Jim Cramer said that Trump's policies are distorting market logic, attracting short sellers and misleading investors: "There is a common cause behind the recent market misjudgments: the president's tariff policies and his nationalist stance toward other regions around the globe continue to disrupt trading decisions."
Cramer pointed out that markets have recently often followed a "sell-off at opening" pattern, as traders anticipate Trump might suddenly make statements about trade or companies like Apple, attempting to profit from short-term declines. But this strategy fails on days when Trump remains silent.
Cramer stated that Trump has almost single-handedly revived the short-selling business, with many hedge funds now heavily shorting stocks such as Nvidia or CoreWeave, firmly believing they can profit risk-free based on White House policies. He warned: "Short sellers could suffer significant losses because many companies are performing exceptionally well—only that actions from the White House frequently obscure Wall Street's vision."
