Investors May Have Had Prior Knowledge of Hamas Attack on Israel

A new study detected a sharp uptick in trading activity on Tel Aviv and US stock exchanges before October.

Law professors Robert Jackson Jr. from New York University and Joshua Mitts of Columbia University examined trading in exchange-traded funds that invest in Israeli companies, as well as short-selling activity on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) and options activity around Israeli firms traded on US exchanges.
