Trump Discloses 1,051 June Stock Trades Worth Up to $263 Million

3 articles · Updated · 24/7 Wall St. · Aug 23

Summary

  • 1,051 securities transactions in June were disclosed in Trump’s latest ethics filing, with total activity valued between $78.1 million and $263.1 million and more than 550 purchases against 450-plus sales.
  • The filing shows buys of Berkshire Hathaway, Visa, Mastercard and Cintas, sales of Meta and Motorola Solutions, and a largest single move—a $5 million to $25 million sale of a Vanguard dividend ETF on June 22.
  • Palantir trades drew added scrutiny because the government contractor appeared in Trump’s accounts before and after the June 14 U.S.-Iran peace agreement, though the White House says independent managers run the portfolio with computer-based index strategies.
  • That structure does not erase conflict-of-interest concerns, especially because a House-passed stock-trading bill approved 232-198 in July would restrict lawmakers and families but exempts the president and vice president.
