It was 260 pretweet. Except 6 minutes before the tweet it fell to 254. Now 252. It would be 252 no matter when the drop started. The market says that is its worth given Trump's view.

What this is is insider trading. Someone knew Trump was going to tweet and sold the stock to profit or reduce loss. That is a crime. Someone should go to prison.
