The disclosure was part of a broader filing that listed stock purchases and sales with a total value between $220 million and $750 million during the first three months of the year.
The same filing showed investments in Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia, each between $1 million and $5 million. President Trump also reported purchases of Chipotle valued between $500,000 and $1 million, Domino's Pizza between $250,000 and $500,000, and Starbucks between $50,000 and $100,000.

The Trump Organization stated that the accounts are managed by third-party financial institutions without input from President Trump or his family.
