Trump Discloses Over 1,000 Stock Trades as Democrats Highlight Oil Sector Profits
President Donald Trump made more than 1,000 stock trades in June 2026 according to a newly released ethics disclosure. The volume of transactions—averaging over 30 per day and totaling between $78 million and $263 million—has drawn scrutiny as the midterm elections approach. Among these were investments in companies like SpaceX (SPCX) and Tesla (TSLA), with notable activity on June 23 when Trump invested up to $50,000 in SpaceX's IPO. Democratic lawmakers highlighted that Trump’s oil and gas stock portfolio has grown significantly since the war in Iran began. As of late 2025, his energy holdings were estimated at around $45.6 million but could now be worth as much as $61.1 million due to rising prices. In early 2026 alone, Trump added up to $3.6 million more into the sector. The Trump Organization maintains that all investment decisions are made by third-party financial institutions and not by the president or his family.
