Factcheck:
Based on reports from Wired and others, Cantor Fitzgerald (run by Lutnick’s sons) bought rights to tariff refunds at 20-30% of value after the 2025 tariffs, potentially yielding 3-5x returns from the recent Supreme Court ruling striking them down. However, the firm denies executing any such trades.
True:
- Lutnick‑affiliated firms bought tariff‑refund claims for 20–30 cents on the dollar.
- The Supreme Court ruling increases the potential value of those claims.
- If refunds are paid in full, investors could see 3–5x returns.
Not confirmed:
- That Lutnick’s sons personally made the trades.
- That refunds will be paid quickly or fully.
