President Donald Trump has disclosed millions of dollars in stock purchases and sales with major U.S. companies in the first quarter of the year, records show.
The thousands of financial transactions, which cover the first three months of 2026, are all detailed in investment documents filed with the U.S. Office of Government Ethics, totaling more than 100 pages.
According to an estimate from Reuters, the president declared at least $220 million in trades.
The disclosures, published Thursday, show that Trump has invested in companies including Boeing, Costco, Microsoft, Nvidia and Oracle. They also reveal securities in Apple, Goldman Sachs, Meta, Palantir, Paramount and Tesla.
Some of his larger purchases, noted between $1 million and $5 million each, were in the S&P 500 Index fund, Nvidia and Apple.
And the president’s biggest day of sales came on Feb. 10, according to Bloomberg News, when he sold holdings in Microsoft, Meta and Amazon, in amounts valued between $5 million and $25 million.
Meanwhile, several outlets reported that Trump has bought and sold stock in companies coinciding with some federal policy moves.
For example, the president purchased $500,001 to $1 million worth of Nvidia stock on Jan. 6, a week before the Commerce Department announced the sale of some Nvidia chip exports to China, NOTUS found.
The president is not required to specify the type of security involved, such as whether it was an individual stock or bond. The filings also do not always indicate in which accounts the transactions took place or who exactly made the them.
A spokesperson for the White House told several outlets that the president’s holdings are managed by independent third-party financial institutions.
“Neither President Trump, his family, nor The Trump Organization plays any role in selecting, directing, or approving specific investments,” Kimberly Benza, director of executive operations and communications, said in a statement. “They receive no advance notice of trading activity and provide no input regarding investment decisions or portfolio management of any kind.”
