Financial misinformation poses significant threats to financial market stability and individuals' investment decisions. The multilingual environment and the inherent complexity of financial information present substantial challenges for Multilingual Financial Misinformation Detection (MFMD). Existing LLM-based approaches for financial misinformation detection primarily focus on English and a single financial misinformation detection task, which limits their ability to capture multilingual contexts and complex features. In this paper, we propose MFMDQwen, the first open-source LLM designed for MFMD tasks. Furthermore, we introduce MFMD4Instruction, the first instruction dataset supporting MFMD with LLMs, covering English, Chinese, Greek, and Bengali. We also construct MFMDBench, a benchmark dataset for evaluating the MFMD capabilities of LLMs. Experimental results on MFMDBench demonstrate that our model outperforms existing open-source LLMs. The project is available at https://github.com/lzw108/FMD.

LLM-based financial agents increasingly rely on both numerical market data and textual signals for sequential trading and stock prediction. However, financial misinformation often appears as subtle textual perturbations rather than explicit falsehoods, making it difficult to detect while still capable of significantly altering agent reasoning and decisions. To study this risk, we propose AutoRedTrader, an autonomous red-teaming framework that generates finance-specific misinformation through behavioral bias manipulation, minor textual perturbations, and rewriting strategies, with agent feedback used to strengthen attacks over time. We evaluate AutoRedTrader in a POMDP-based financial agent simulation environment, and further examine a time-series-informed grounding setting for robustness analysis. The framework enables systematic evaluation of how subtle misinformation affects financial agents and whether historical market evidence can stabilize decisions under misleading textual signals. We evaluate the framework on Bitcoin transaction data. The results show that AutoRedTrader achieves the strongest attack performance with 69.00% misinformation exposure rate and 26.67% attack success rate, outperforming general-purpose misinformation and red-teaming baselines. Ablation studies further show that all modules contribute to generating retrievable and decision-effective financial misinformation.
