DUBAI, July 31 (Reuters) - Oman's ministry of oil and gas has signed a gas exploration agreement with Italy's Eni and BP Oman for concession block 77, the ministry said on its Twitter feed on Wednesday.

Just ask a hardy band of mostly amateur Wall Street investors who have collectively made tens of millions of dollars over the past month by betting that the stock price of his social media business — Truth Social — will keep dropping despite massive buying by Trump loyalists and wild swings that often mirror the candidate’s latest polls, court trials and outbursts on Trump Social itself.
