77% OF AMERICANS BLAME TRUMP FOR RISING GAS PRICES, ACCORDING TO A POLL

A recent poll indicates that 77% of Americans attribute rising gas prices to former President Trump, reflecting heightened public sentiment regarding energy costs. This perception may influence consumer behavior and sentiment, potentially affecting risk appetite and political dynamics ahead of upcoming elections. Energy markets, particularly natural gas (NATGAS), could see increased volatility as political narratives shape market expectations around energy policy and supply. Traders will be attentive to upcoming economic data releases and political events that could further impact energy prices and sentiment, particularly any statements from key political figures regarding energy strategy.

HIGH-impact news is typically a market-moving event with multi-pip or multi-percent intraday reactions. Examples include central bank rate decisions, major CPI/NFP releases, geopolitical shocks, mega-cap earnings beats/misses, and regulatory announcements. Traders typically position-reduce or hedge ahead of scheduled HIGH-impact events, and follow the wire in real time to react to unscheduled ones (war headlines, central-bank emergency statements, surprise corporate actions). The Trading News Terminal squawk box reads every HIGH-impact headline aloud the moment it hits the wire — so active traders don't have to stare at the feed.

Active traders typically follow a three-step workflow when a market-moving headline hits the wire: (1) read the headline on the terminal or hear it on the squawk box; (2) assess whether the news is already priced in (by checking intraday price action in the seconds before) or whether it's genuinely new information; (3) act — either entering a breakout position, fading an overreaction, or tightening stops on existing trades. Trading News Terminal's Pro plan delivers wire-grade headlines within seconds of the source, with automatic audio squawk on every HIGH-impact event, so the read-assess-act cycle never waits on a refresh button.
