In 2026, Trump carried out share transactions involving tech giants worth tens of millions of dollars

According to documents from the US Office of Government Ethics, Donald Trump carried out a series of major financial transactions worth tens of millions of dollars in the first quarter of 2026.

This is according to Bloomberg.

The president has bought and sold shares in leading US companies, including Nvidia, Microsoft, Oracle, Boeing and Costco. In particular, investments in some of these corporations have reached up to $5 million each.

These commercial transactions coincide with the administration’s political moves. For example, executives from Nvidia and Boeing are accompanying Trump on his trip to China, whilst the government previously struck a multi-billion-dollar deal with Intel.

Furthermore, the US leader invested in media giants Netflix, Paramount Skydance and Warner Bros Discovery during their merger negotiations, which are currently under review by antitrust authorities.

Meanwhile, the largest sale of assets took place on 10 February, when Trump sold shares in Microsoft, Meta and Amazon worth between $5 million and $25 million.

The White House has stated that the president does not make investment decisions personally, and that the transactions are managed by independent financial managers via automated index programmes.
