TRUMP ON TRUTH SOCIAL: The White House Ballroom is going up rapidly on the East side of the White House.

Former President Trump announced via Truth Social that the East side of the White House is undergoing significant expansion, with costs rising due to the project's increased size. This development may influence market sentiment related to political stability and governance, potentially affecting risk appetite among investors. Stocks associated with Trump, such as those linked to his media ventures, could experience volatility as traders react to the implications of political developments on his brand. Market participants will likely keep an eye on upcoming political events or statements that could further impact perceptions of Trump's influence and the broader political landscape.

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.
