Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Rep. Robert Garcia are seeking answers from President Donald Trump over thousands of stock trades disclosed during his presidency, including transactions they say occurred shortly before government actions or presidential statements affecting individual companies. The lawmakers asked Trump to identify the outside institutions and managers controlling his investments and detail his knowledge of specific trades.
- Trump disclosed 3,555 stock trades worth up to $500 million during the first three months of 2026.
- Warren and Garcia highlighted 30 examples, including trades involving Nvidia, AMD, Axon Enterprise, Boeing, Microsoft and Palantir.
- Trump purchased Nvidia and AMD shares one week before the administration loosened export controls on certain chips sold to China.
- He purchased $1 million to $5 million of Axon stock two weeks before ICE published plans to procure up to $220 million in Tasers.
