Trump’s Q1 stock trading exposed: over 3,600 transactions in 3 months, with a total amount reaching up to $750 million
BlockBeats News, May 16, the latest disclosure from the U.S. Government Ethics Office (OGE) reveals that U.S. President Trump conducted large-scale financial transactions in the first quarter of 2026, with a total transaction volume estimated between 220 million and 750 million U.S. dollars. The records show 3,642 stock-related transactions, including 2,346 purchases and 1,296 sales.
The disclosure indicates that Trump frequently invested in the chip and technology sectors, making multiple purchases of semiconductor companies such as Nvidia, Broadcom, Synopsys, and Texas Instruments, each in the 1 million to 5 million U.S. dollar range. He also increased holdings in software and cloud computing companies including Apple, Oracle, ServiceNow, Adobe, and Workday.
On the selling side, the documents record multiple reductions in holdings of tech giants like Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft, including several large sales in the 5 million to 25 million U.S. dollar range. However, there were also small-scale replenishment trades.
The documents do not disclose specific details of the transactions or the gains and losses, only the range of transaction amounts and number of trades. Trump’s related assets are managed by family trusts and brokerage accounts, with some transactions executed by brokers on his behalf. According to federal disclosure rules, the U.S. President must report financial transactions exceeding 1,000 U.S. dollars, but the reports only reflect approximate transaction ranges and do not include exact prices or returns. A more comprehensive annual financial disclosure is expected to be released later.
BlockBeats previously reported that U.S. President Trump failed to disclose tens of millions of dollars in stock transactions involving Microsoft, Amazon, and other companies within the legal deadline, with the delay lasting several months. According to the latest investment disclosure documents, he was fined 200 U.S. dollars for this delay.

According to system modeling through 2028, the upside potential for assets such as chips and data centers is now very limited and faces risks of financing and construction delays.
