President Trump Files Report Detailing Over 3,600 Stock Trades in First Quarter
President Trump disclosed more than 3,600 stock trades during the first quarter of 2026. The filing with the Office of Government Ethics lists transactions in companies whose business has been affected by administration decisions.
investors.comPresident Trump filed a report with the federal Office of Government Ethics showing more than 3,600 stock buy and sell orders during the first quarter of 2026. The document spans more than 100 pages and indicates possibly more than $100 million in transactions over three months.
The report lists purchases of shares in Nvidia, Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, Northrop Grumman, Apple, Boeing, Tesla, Intel, Shake Shack, Papa John’s and Cheesecake Factory. Exact dollar amounts for individual trades are not provided, only ranges.
A spokesperson for the Trump family business stated that the president’s portfolio is managed by third parties with sole authority over investment decisions. The spokesperson added that neither President Trump, his family, nor the Trump Organization selects or approves specific investments.
U.S. law prohibits most federal employees from holding assets that could be affected by their official duties, but the president is exempt from this restriction. The report shows more purchases than sales, though the precise ratio cannot be determined from the available data.
U.S. presidents prior to the current term sold their individual stocks or placed assets in diversified funds or blind trusts before taking office. The current filing marks the first time in the modern era that a sitting president has reported this volume of direct stock trading.
The report was filed after the president’s recent visit to China, during which the CEOs of Nvidia, Apple, Boeing and Tesla accompanied him.
