High-Frequency Trading Firms Sign Up for Trump Feed -- WSJ
Dow Jones2026/08/11 12:54$60,000 to $100,000 a month
That's how much Trump Media & Technology customers are paying for a real-time feed of top Truth Social accounts, the company said in its earnings Monday.
More than 10 customers have signed up, primarily high-frequency trading firms, Trump Media's Interim Chief Executive Kevin McGurn said in the company's first-ever earnings call on Monday.
Truth API, pitched as faster access to posts from top accounts, has drawn criticism that the first family is mixing its business interests and White House affairs. The president uses Truth Social to share updates about trade deals, the Iran war and more. McGurn said the criticism is misinformed.

Crude oil is "coming back", but refined oil is "not coming back"; the global refining gap is widening.
According to Goldman Sachs, global refined oil exports have declined by about 6 million barrels per day year-on-year, with the Gulf region and Russia contributing three-quarters of the decrease. Unlike crude oil, which can be rerouted, damaged refineries cannot be relocated, and the Gulf region's refined oil exports have only recovered to 40% of pre-war levels. Goldman Sachs expects global refinery utilization rates to recover only by the second half of 2027; based on this, it has more than doubled its forecast for diesel profit margins in 2027.
