BREAKING: Claims are circulating from several whistleblowers alleging that Axios coordinated market-sensitive reporting with financial insiders, including accusations that CME order information was shared by phone before market open and close prints, while crude oil short positions were allegedly placed ahead of Axios reports on a possible U.S.-Iran deal and a “14-point agreement.” Iranian political analyst Mohammad Marandi also accused figures close to President Donald J. Trump, Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner of profiting from what he described as false reports surrounding negotiations with Iran. No evidence has been publicly presented to support the allegations, and Axios has not publicly responded to the claims.
