President Donald Trump has quietly bought stock in hundreds of American companies since the start of the year, according to a new financial disclosure filed with the Office of Government Ethics—a marked shift from an investment strategy that had focused almost exclusively on corporate and municipal bonds.
The filing, posted May 14, spans 113 pages and covers more than 3,600 securities transactions between January and late March 2026. Trump has bought hundreds of millions in bonds since returning to the White House, including $51 million in March, according to Reuters. This appears to be the first financial transaction disclosure Trump has filed during his second term that shows the president picking individual corporate stocks.
Trump has invested in hundreds of individual companies, from household names like Apple, Nvidia, Microsoft, and Amazon to defense contractors, energy companies, pharmaceutical firms, banks, and crypto-related stocks, industries subject to regulation by his administration.
Crypto stock purchases stand out, as Trump, the self-declared “Crypto President,” advances policies in line with the industry’s agenda and launches business ventures in digital assets. The filing shows Trump bought stock in Coinbase Global, MARA Holdings—a Bitcoin mining company—and Strategy Inc., the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin in the world. Trump has made crypto-friendly policy a signature of his second term, replacing the leadership of the Securities and Exchange Commission with officials more favorable to the industry, creating crypto reserves through executive orders, and pushing Congress to pass the industry’s regulatory wishlist like the Clarity Act.
Trump purchased millions of dollars worth of Oracle stock as his administration has facilitated a deal for the U.S. operations of TikTok, in which the tech company is invested, according to the disclosure. In December, Trump issued an executive order seeking federal preemption of state regulations on artificial intelligence, then in the following months bought stock in Nvidia, AMD, Creweave, KLA Corp., and other AI industry stocks. His funds also traded six-figure amounts of stock in government contractor Palantir.
