Trump Made 3,700 Stock Trades Worth Up to $750 Million — Then His Government Handed Those Companies Contracts and Favors
Financial disclosures reveal Trump made over 3,700 stock trades in Q1 2026 totaling $220M-$750M. The pattern: buy stock, then promote the company or award it a government contract. He bought up to $5M in Dell, told Americans to "buy a Dell computer," then the Pentagon gave Dell a $9.7B contract. He bought TKO (UFC's parent) stock, then staged a UFC fight on the White House lawn. He bought AMD stock on January 6 — a week before Commerce authorized AMD to sell chips to China. He bought Oracle stock as his administration helped Oracle secure TikTok. Jim Cramer was speechless. His investments are not in a blind trust. JD Vance's defense: "The president doesn't sit at the Oval Office on his Robinhood account." The fine for missing his disclosure deadline: $200.
3,700 Trades in 3 Months: Trump's Financial Disclosure Reveals Astonishing Trading Activity as He Props and Drops Companies

He's buying and selling Nvidia, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, Boeing, and dozens more — the same companies whose stock prices move when he announces tariffs, approves chip deals, or shifts policy. Wall Street insiders called the volume "astonishing."
