The Pentagon cancels $ 10 billion contract with Microsoft, and Pelosi’s husband bought Amazon

On July 3, the Pentagon announces a real industrial tsunami: the JEDI contract, a contract won by Microsoft for the cloud computing of all the US armed forces, an extremely sensitive activity, is canceled. The contract is then redefined, according to new and more advanced specifications, and Amazon is back in the game against Microsoft, in a race that was thought to have been closed since 2019.

A nice turnaround, and, coincidentally, again by pure luck, A democratic politician managed to take advantage of it with excellent timing. The week before the announcement, Nancy Pelosi's husband exercised a series of call options on the big names of the web, including Amazon and on Nvidia, all positions opened on May 21 and which proved to be very profitable after the announcement of the end of the contract. USA, which relaunched Amazon, but also had an impact on other stocks.

Of course it is all random and all the result of luck. Nobody could have told Pelosi's husband that the pentagon was canceling the JEDI contract and was preparing to launch another billionaire and that it would reopen the games. All perfectly legal, and very lucky ..

Meanwhile, the Chamber is thinking of attacking micro-speculators and hitting the so-called “Meme – Stocks”, those that killed the short sales of the big names, because they are the problem. Not very lucky politicians.
