According to Jinshi News, the significant rise in oil prices this month and the market's adjustment of expectations for the Federal Reserve's easing policy have resulted in a $10 million profit from a short-term interest rate options trade.

This bet was placed in January in the form of options related to the secured overnight financing rate, which is closely tied to the Federal Reserve's policy direction. Last week, this bet gained traction as conflicts in the Middle East caused crude oil prices to rise to their highest level since 2022, raising concerns about inflation and prompting traders to expect the Federal Reserve to maintain higher interest rates for a longer period.
