Epstein's address book under an entry for "massages," according to flight logbooks obtained by Gawker and published today for the first time.
He said that on September 10, 2001, the day before the terrorist attacks on New York and the Pentagon, he was at a customer outing and received a frantic phone call from his sales assistant who was covering the desk in his absence.
A major sovereign wealth fund had called to place an order to buy $2 billion of 2-year Treasury notes. Even by the standards of large bank dealers, an order for two billion dollars of notes in one transaction is almost unheard of.
The sovereign wealth fund was so large that counterparty credit was not an issue. The $2 billion trade was executed and settled at the end of that business day. The customer was never heard from again. The next day the attack took place and the value of the newly purchased 2-year notes soared in a predictable “flight to quality” in the face of geopolitical uncertainty.
The disappearing sovereign wealth fund made millions. Unlike the stock exchange, which closed after the attack, the U.S. Treasury market remained open, and the sovereign wealth fund was able to collect its winnings without difficulty.
It was a clear-cut case of insider trading in advance of the attack.

Since the SEC has not historically policed these markets in insider trading cases, the sovereign wealth fund with the advance knowledge of the 9/11 attack was able to get away scot-free.

Our hypothesis at CIA was that actual terrorists engaged in small trades, while non-terrorist market professionals piggy-backed on those terrorist price signals to produce a much larger volume of trading, a process called “signal amplification.” The difficulty was in tracing backwards through the large, innocent, copycat trades to identify the actual terrorist associates who started the process.
An author and economist says a reader once approached him with a chilling story (Business Insider, Apr 18, 2017)
We conclude that a SARS-CoV-2 progenitor capable of producing a measles-like syndrome may have emerged in late June-late July 2019 and that viruses with mutations characterizing B.1 strain may have been spreading globally before the first Wuhan outbreak. Our findings should be complemented by high-throughput sequencing to obtain additional sequence information.
Molecular evidence for SARS-CoV-2
As Saudi Arabia’s long-standing defence minister, Sultan agreed to billions of pounds worth of weapons purchases from British arms giant BAE Systems, in deals marred by bribery.
The funeral came amid what Human Rights Watch called Saudi Arabia’s “unflinching repression to demands by citizens for greater democracy” in the wake of the Arab Spring. The kingdom had executed at least 61 prisoners that year alone, including a child, and a man accused of “sorcery”.

2014: Saudi sword dance
The following year provided another opportunity for Prince Charles to perform his role as a de facto salesman for BAE Systems, this time in Saudi Arabia and Qatar. On 17 February, Charles flew from RAF Brize Norton to Riyadh, in what was reported to be his 10th trip to the kingdom in his lifetime.
...
After years of delay, the Saudis may have been persuaded to sign after Charles joined them in a traditional sword dance (video), adorned in Arab dress. The incident drew sharp criticism from campaigners, given that Saudi Arabia had executed at least 79 people the previous year, often by beheading.

Upon landing in Oman’s capital, Muscat, they were met by Sayyid Haitham and had dinner with Sultan Qaboos. True to form, Charles took part in a traditional sword dance, (Oman video w/dancing Arab bag piper) as he had done in Saudi Arabia.
