8月28日（路透社）——美国商品期货交易委员会（CFTC）周五下令前白宫提词器操作员加布里埃尔·佩雷斯支付172539美元，因其提前获取唐纳德·特朗普总统的演讲内容，在预测市场平台上进行非法交易。
根据与CFTC达成的和解协议，佩雷斯需退还107539.02美元的非法所得，并缴纳65000美元的民事罚款。他同时同意接受为期三年的交易禁令，并承诺停止进一步违反《商品交易法》及CFTC规定的行为。

CFTC表示，佩雷斯2025年12月至2026年2月期间在白宫任职期间，在Kalshi平台上交易总统“提及市场”合约。这类合约属于事件合约，其结算依据为总统是否在演讲中使用特定词汇或短语。
目前无法立即联系到佩雷斯置评。他已被无薪停职，不再为联邦政府工作。
CFTC称，佩雷斯能够在特朗普演讲公开前提前获取演讲稿内容，并利用这些重大非公开信息为个人利益交易相关合约。
该机构表示，鉴于佩雷斯在调查中“配合出色”，对其处以的65000美元罚款已大幅减免。
CFTC同时感谢Kalshi交易所在此次调查中提供的协助。

Aug 28 (Reuters) – The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission on Friday ordered former White House teleprompter operator Gabriel Perez to pay $172,539 for using advance access to President Donald Trump’s speeches to make illegal trades on a prediction-market platform.
Perez must repay $107,539.02 in profits and pay a $65,000 civil penalty under a settlement with the CFTC. He also agreed to a three-year trading ban and to cease and desist from further violations of the Commodity Exchange Act and CFTC regulations.

The CFTC said Perez traded presidential “mention market” contracts on Kalshi between December 2025 and February 2026 while working at the White House. The contracts are event contracts that pay out based on whether a president uses specific words or phrases in speeches.
Perez could not immediately be reached for comment. He was put on unpaid leave and is no longer working for the federal government.
Perez had access to Trump’s speeches before they were delivered and used that material, nonpublic information to trade the contracts for his personal benefit, the CFTC said.
The agency said Perez’s $65,000 penalty represented a substantial discount because of his “exemplary cooperation” with the investigation.
The CFTC also credited KalshiEX with assisting in the matter.
