A bit difficult to pin down precisely how currently, but using the phrase 'trump insider trading' with Google News brings up articles spanning a period of a couple of months, but I just started watching a Youtube video that is dated today and the guy mentions another well-timed 720 million dollar bet on oil futures without saying when or providing a link to the story. No matter.. it's obvious the behaviour is ongoing and whoever is doing it thinks they'll get away with it. And it's not just related to the conflict with Iran or with oil, but almost anything that will allow bets to make millions of dollars.
In no particular order:
