Two disclaimers: This is a massively complex system, open to many different interpretations, and hard to pin down. Two, I'm pretty clueless on this stuff.

So, yeah, this is just one theory but...haven't they recently been shifting the polls and betting odds back in favor of Harris anyway? So the "system" is expecting or pretending to expect a Harris win, not a Trump win. So in that respect it's kind of a double whammy: They're lying about Harris being the clear winner, but then also blaming Trump for market instability. They're trying to eat their cake and have it, too.
