US President Donald Trump or his advisors made more than 3700 stock trades in the first three months of this year. After this revelation, a new investigation has started on Trump. This level of trading activity has surprised even the Wall Street magnates. Due to this, the concern of conflict of interest has again increased in Washington.
Bloomberg was the first to report these revelations, which showed trading activity worth millions of dollars in some of America’s largest technology, finance, aerospace and media companies. In simple words, between January and March this year, Trump made an average of more than 40 trades every day. This is a big jump from the previous quarter, when about 380 trades were disclosed in the last three months of 2025.
Stock market experts are quite surprised by this level of trade. Speaking to Bloomberg, market expert Matthew Tuttle said that this is a huge trade. He said, ‘It’s almost like a hedge fund with algo trading on a large scale.’
In which companies did Trump invest?
Revelations have revealed that Trump bought shares worth at least one million US dollars in companies like NVIDIA, Oracle, Microsoft, Boeing and Costco this quarter. The filing also included trades related to companies like Amazon, Meta, Uber, eBay, Abbott Laboratories, AT&T and Dollar Tree. One of the largest disclosed transactions occurred on February 10, when Trump sold holdings in Microsoft, Meta, and Amazon worth between USD 5 million and USD 25 million. Apart from this, investments related to companies involved in big media and entertainment deals like Netflix, Warner Bros. Discovery and Paramount Global have also been revealed.

Conflict of interest due to Trump’s investment!
Many of these companies work in sectors that are directly affected by the policies, regulations, and geopolitical decisions of the US government. For example, Nvidia needs approval from Washington to export advanced AI chips to China. Boeing is heavily dependent on defense and aerospace contracts with the US government. Big tech companies like Microsoft, Amazon, and Meta are constantly affected by antitrust investigations, AI regulation debates, and federal policy decisions.
What do the critics say?
Critics say that even if no laws have been broken, such aggressive trading activities by the current President raise serious concerns about a possible conflict of interest. Unlike many previous US presidents, Trump did not sell his business interests entirely or put them into a traditional blind trust, which is managed independently without family involvement. According to Bloomberg, Trump’s businesses operate in industries that are impacted by government policy decisions, while his sons oversee a large portion of the Trump Organization.
Trump’s statements affected the stock market
These new revelations come just months after strange trading activity in the oil and stock futures markets, which led to speculation about inside information related to Trump’s public comments on Iran. Earlier this year, traders reportedly placed massive bets on falling oil prices and rising US equity markets, just before Trump suggested progress in Iran talks. Immediately following those remarks, oil prices fell while the stock market surged, leading to intense online speculation and new debate over the political implications of the market. Although no evidence directly linking Trump to those trades has emerged publicly, the incident has raised concerns about how sensitive political developments can be linked to financial markets.
