Trump's 21,000 Trades: What's Behind His First-Year Investment Surge? New

Trump's 21,000 Trades: What's Behind His First-Year Investment Surge?

Across President Donald Trump's first year back in the White House, his investment advisers made more than 21,000 securities trades, amassing sizable holdings in companies that are directly involved in deals tied to his administration, according to a review of his annual financial report.According to the report, Trump's investment accounts grew to at least $858 million and included stakes in approximately 1,600 companies. The staggering number of trades across eight separate accounts marks a significant departure from previous presidents, who have either divested their holdings or traded exclusively in diversified mutual funds. By contrast, Joe Biden made a total of 13 stock trades during his entire tenure as president. President Donald Trump speaks in the Oval Office at the White House in Washington, June 29, 2026.Jacquelyn Martin/AP PhotoTrump's investment advisers have also carried out more trades than prior years, according to his prior financial disclosures. For instance, the report for the first year of Trump's first term in 2017 lists 86 stock transactions. While the trades overall suggest Trump's investment portfolio is professionally managed and in line with industry practices, Trump holds stakes in dozens of companies that have government contracts, such as Palantir, Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Raytheon, Intel, Nvidia, as well as private prison operators GEO Group and CoreCivic. Many of the companies the president has invested in also benefit from his policies, prompting criticism from Democrats about alleged conflicts of interest. On the same day that the White House unveiled its "AI Action Plan" on July 23, 2025, Trump purchased between $1-5 million each in six companies -- Amazon, Apple, Broadcom, Meta, Microsoft, and Nvidia -- whose work with AI was directly impacted by the policy, which sought to lessen regulations on the industry.President Donald Trump stops to speak to the media before boarding Air Force One, July 1, 2026 at Joint Base Andrews, Maryland.Saul Loeb/AFP via Getty ImagesThe financial disclosure did not indicate whether those trades were executed before or after the announcement, and Trump also purchased stocks unrelated to AI that day. The White House has defended the president's stock trades and highlighted that his investment accounts are managed by professional advisers who do not regularly communicate with Trump.Popular ReadsSpeaking to reporters on Wednesday, Trump argued that "everyone" including himself is profiting from overall growth of the stock market. "You know ⁠why ​I'm profiting? Because the ​stock market's going up, everybody's profiting," Trump said. Trump has also actively traded in multiple companies whose stock prices have been impacted by his posts on social media.In the months before Trump publicly praised software maker Palantir on social media earlier this year, his investment advisers purchased between $200,000 and $680,000 worth of the company's stock, according to a different disclosure report covering the first quarter of 2026.Trump also sold between $1-5 million of the stock during the same time frame, undercutting claims that he was trying to buy the stock when it dipped. President Donald Trump delivers remarks at the Faith & Freedom Coalition's 2026 Policy Conference in Washington, June 26, 2026.Evan Vucci/Reuters"Palantir Technologies (PLTR) has proven to have great war fighting capabilities and equipment.

President DJT," Trump wrote on April 10 in a post that included the stock ticker of the company. After Palantir's stock suffered one of the worst weeks in a year, Trump's subsequent public endorsement of the company preceded a significant uptick in the company's stock price. Another high-profile post by Trump that moved the market -- his April 9, 2025, declaration that "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!! DJT" -- came four hours ahead of his announcement that he would pause tariffs for 90 days. One day before that market-moving post, one of Trump's investment accounts made 327 purchases of a broad array of securities. While those trades appeared to benefit from the rally caused by Trump's post, that account also made similar trades over the last year and appeared to increase trading activity during high volatility events -- suggesting the trades may be part of a broader practice to rebalance his portfolio.

Jeanine Pirro's Fiery Response to a Reporter Sparks Debate New

Jeanine Pirro's Fiery Response to a Reporter Sparks Debate

A tense exchange broke out during a Justice Department press conference Thursday after an unexpected question shifted attention away from the case officials had gathered to discuss.The moment quickly became the headline of the event as U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro refused to entertain a comparison that a reporter repeatedly tried to raise, ending the exchange before the reporter could fully make his case.Pirro was announcing a federal indictment against Olympic athlete David Hearn, who faces up to 10 years in prison after allegedly damaging the recently restored Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, when a reporter questioned the Justice Department’s approach.The reporter argued that the government appeared to be pursuing Hearn aggressively while many people involved in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot caused far greater damage.As he began making the comparison, Pirro immediately cut him off.Advertisement The reporter tried again, saying, “Over 1,000 January 6 rioters caused millions of damage.”Pirro interrupted him a second time and made it clear she would not engage with the comparison.“Are you really talking about January 6?” she asked. “I’m not.”“Who’s next? Not you! No!” she said.The exchange lasted only a few seconds before Pirro called on another reporter and continued the press conference.The confrontation quickly spread across social media, where supporters praised Pirro for refusing to let the briefing shift away from the case at hand, while critics argued the reporter had raised a legitimate question about prosecutorial consistency.Earlier in the briefing, Pirro emphasized that the Trump administration intends to aggressively prosecute anyone accused of damaging national monuments and memorials.“This was a deliberate act to damage the reflecting pool at the National Mall that members of the National Park Service actually have worked hard to restore and have witnessed,” Pirro said.She added that motivation would not excuse vandalism.“If anyone decides they want to damage that, whatever they think their reason is, or whether they think it’s justified, or whether they think it’s not important, will be held to account,” Pirro said.“This is a priority not only for the president but for myself as well.”In a separate statement announcing the indictment, Pirro pointed to President Donald Trump’s initiative to restore Washington landmarks ahead of America’s 250th anniversary celebration.“After months of renovations ordered by President Trump to prepare our capital for America’s 250th anniversary—including the restoration of more than 50 parks, 48 monuments, and 22 fountains—these deliberate acts of destruction set back real progress and violate the law,” Pirro said.“Vandalism at treasured places like the Reflecting Pool is an affront to our shared history and the dignity of our national heritage.”“These monuments belong to all of us, and we will protect them—and hold accountable those who seek to deface or diminish them.”According to prosecutors, a grand jury returned an indictment against Hearn on July 2 charging him with one count of felony destruction of property under District of Columbia law.Authorities allege the incident occurred on June 19 when Hearn intentionally ripped away a section of newly installed blue sealant from the bottom of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.Federal officials said the damage came only months after extensive restoration work ordered as part of preparations for next year’s America 250 celebrations. Reporter: “Over 1,000 January 6th rioters caused millions of dollars in damage —” U.S. Attorney for D.C. Jeanine Pirro: “Are you really telling me about January 6th?” Reporter: “Yeah…” Jeanine Pirro: “I’m not. Okay, who’s next? NOT YOU, NO!” She’s awesome! pic.twitter.com/hkkkrooZGf — RedWave Press (@RedWavePress) July 2, 2026If convicted, Hearn faces a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.A court hearing is scheduled for July 9.Deputy Chief David Lamond of the U.S. Park Police joined Pirro in announcing the charges.The investigation is being conducted by the U.S. Park Police.This article may contain commentary which reflects the author's opinion.
