I am not suggesting this is occurring but do world leaders ever intentionally spook the stock market, get their buddies to buy up stocks then revert their changes, wait for the market to climb and then sell?

This is assumed behaviour, particularly in some governments. They control the information, the timing, and law enforcement.

Donald Trump blatantly did this last year via Truth Social.
