Experts suggest these trades likely employed automated, model-based portfolio strategies, including index-based management and tax-loss harvesting, rather than direct human intervention. Critics, however, point to specific transactions, like Nvidia stock purchases before a chip sale approval, as evidence of potential insider trading and policy influence. AI
