I just saw a tech insider dump $2.7 MILLION in stock. It's 44% of their entire position.
Simultaneously, a different CEO just made his first $250,000 buy in over a year.
These aren't random blog posts. This is the "smart money" putting their own cash on the line. They know something you don't.
This is the "tell" right before a stock moons or tanks. While everyone else reads lagging news, you could be seeing the moves that matter.
Stop guessing. We're tracking every "Buy Spike," "Start Sell," and "Stop Buy" from the inside. This is the data I'd kill for.

Trump Tightens Sanctions on Russian Oil
The Trump administration imposed sanctions on Russia’s top oil producers, Rosneft and Lukoil, cutting shipments to India. It authorized Ukraine to use British Storm Shadow missiles (180+ miles range) and approved 3,350 U.S.-supplied ERAM missiles (150-280 miles range) but declined to provide long-range Tomahawk missiles.
Russia conducted nuclear-capable missile exercises. A planned Trump-Putin summit in Hungary was delayed as hostilities continue, with over one million Russians killed or injured. Recent Russian strikes killed six civilians in Ukraine and caused power outages.
The EU considers using $163 billion in frozen Russian assets to aid Ukraine. NATO leaders express cautious optimism about peace prospects amid ongoing conflict and winter humanitarian concerns.

US Expands Military Strikes Against Drug Traffickers
The U.S. military has expanded airstrikes on suspected drug-smuggling vessels from the Caribbean to the Pacific, conducting nine strikes since September that killed at least 37 people.
Two survivors were handed to Ecuador and Colombia; Ecuador released its survivor for lack of evidence. Recent Pacific strikes killed five people along known trafficking routes west of Central and South America. About 10,000 U.S. troops, fighter jets, missile destroyers, and submarines support the campaign. President Trump warned traffickers may shift to land routes and may seek approval for targeting land-based smugglers.
Relations with Colombia have deteriorated after Trump called its president a “drug leader” and cut subsidies. The DEA says most U.S.-bound cocaine passes through the Pacific corridor.

U.S. National Debt Surges Past $38 Trillion
The U.S. national debt surpassed $38 trillion in October 2025, growing $1 trillion since August amid a third-week government shutdown. Interest payments now total about $1 trillion annually and are projected to reach $14 trillion over the next decade.
The federal deficit hit $1.8 trillion for fiscal 2025, with the debt expected to hit 120% of GDP by 2035. Annual deficits could rise to $2.6 trillion, adding $22.7 trillion more debt over 10 years. Shutdowns increase costs and delay economic activity.
Social Security and Medicare trust funds face depletion within seven years without reforms. Credit rating agencies downgraded U.S. debt due to fiscal risks and political gridlock.

Given the current $38 trillion debt, should the U.S. prioritize reducing the national debt even if it slows economic growth?Click to see live results and comment! |

Tesla’s Profit Drop
Tesla’s Q3 2025 revenue rose 12% to $28.1 billion with record vehicle deliveries at 497,099 units, driven by strong U.S. demand before EV tax credit expiry and a 31% sales increase at Shanghai Gigafactory.
However, adjusted net income fell 29% to $1.8 billion, and operating profit dropped 40%, affected by $400 million in U.S. tariffs and a 50% rise in operating costs due to AI and robotics investments. Emissions credit revenue declined 44%, dropping to $417 million after regulatory changes.
Energy and services revenue grew 44% and 25%, respectively. Shares fell 3.8%, amid shareholder opposition to Elon Musk’s $1 trillion compensation and rising competition from BYD and trade tensions.

Record-Breaking Genome Sequencing
Boston Children’s Hospital researchers sequenced a full human genome in under four hours using Roche's sequencing by expansion (SBX) prototype, cutting diagnosis time from days to hours.
They processed 15 samples, including 7 newborns in the NICU, delivering same-day genetic variant data critical for urgent treatment decisions. This workflow is practical for clinical use and can reduce unnecessary procedures by enabling targeted treatments.
The breakthrough was published and funded by Boston Children’s Hospital, NIH, and Roche. This advance could transform neonatal care and rare disease treatment by making rapid genome sequencing standard in critical care settings.

Prenatal Exposure to “Forever Chemicals”
Prenatal PFAS exposure is linked to structural and functional brain changes in children, including alterations in the corpus callosum, hypothalamus, and occipital lobe. Different PFAS compounds have varying effects on these regions.
Functional MRI confirmed changes in brain activity patterns. A separate study found higher prenatal PFAS levels reduce T cells critical for vaccine response and increase cells linked to allergies and autoimmune issues, with effects growing through infancy.
PFAS chemicals, persistent in the environment and found in over 95% of Americans, cross the placenta and blood-brain barrier, accumulating in fetal brain tissue. The studies show correlations but not causation, prompting calls for larger research on long-term health impacts.

Given that PFAS are found in everyday products, do you believe it is practically possible for expectant mothers to significantly reduce their exposure?Click to see live results and comment! |
