When the president says he’s going to let RFK “go wild” … and Big Pharma crashes. Do you think that’s an accident?

What about when he tells his followers, “Now is a good time to buy,” hours before relaxing tariffs and sending the market soaring? Is that an accident? Larry Benedict doesn’t think so. He thinks Trump knows what he’s doing… and believes he’s found the perfect tickers for everyday Americans to take advantage next time he triggers a big move.
