-- 根據多家新聞媒體週三報道,美國商品期貨交易委員會(CFTC)正在調查一系列原油期貨交易,這些交易發生在與美國總統川普處理伊朗衝突相關的重大美國政策出台前不久。 據報道,此次調查正在審查芝加哥商品交易所集團(CME)和洲際交易所(ICE)旗下交易所的原油期貨交易活動,重點關注3月23日和4月7日的至少兩筆交易。 報告稱,調查人員已要求提供交易所記錄,包括所謂的「Tag 50」標識符,該標識符可以揭示交易背後的實體。 這項審查源於市場參與者和至少兩位民主黨參議員的擔憂,他們認為這些時機異常精準的交易可能帶來了巨額利潤,並可能表明使用了非公開資訊。 CFTC、CME、ICE和白宮均未立即回應的置評請求。 3月23日,在川普宣布推遲先前威脅的對伊朗能源基礎設施的打擊行動前15分鐘,價值數十億美元的石油和股票期貨交易量激增。 報道稱,上週,在美伊宣布停火前數小時,投資者在石油多頭部位投入了約9.5億美元。 據報道,白宮先前曾告誡工作人員,在持續的伊朗衝突期間,不要利用敏感的政府資訊進行個人期貨交易。 上個月,美國商品期貨交易委員會(CFTC)的執法主管表示,該機構正在監控能源市場潛在的市場不當行為和操縱行為,並注意到近期有關CFTC監管產品內線交易的猜測。
