President Donald Trump’s latest financial disclosure has revealed one of the most active investment records ever reported by a sitting US president.
The filing shows more than 22,000 securities trades across eight investment accounts during his first year back in office. Meanwhile, Trump defended his administration’s policies and declared the United States the global leader in both cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence.
The report also comes days after separate disclosures showed Trump earned more than $1 billion from crypto-related businesses in 2025, adding fresh scrutiny over his financial interests.
More than 22,000 trades across eight accounts
Trump’s 2025 financial disclosure showed his investment advisers executed more than 21,000 securities trades during the year, with some reports placing the total above 22,000 transactions. The combined value of those trades ranged between $600 million and $1.86 billion.

His investment portfolio grew to at least $858 million and held positions in roughly 1,600 companies. The activity averaged about 85 trades on every market day. Around one-quarter of all transactions took place on just 10 trading days, many during periods of heavy market volatility.
The report also showed more than 200 instances where one account bought a stock while another account sold the same security on the same day.
Trump’s trading activity far exceeded that of previous presidents. Joe Biden reported only 13 stock trades during his presidency, while Trump’s first financial disclosure from 2017 listed just 86 stock transactions.
Portfolio includes major government contractors
The disclosure showed investments in several companies that either hold federal contracts or are directly affected by government policy. Those holdings included Palantir, Nvidia, Intel, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, GEO Group and CoreCivic.
On July 23, 2025, the same day the White House introduced its AI Action Plan, Trump’s accounts purchased between $1 million and $5 million each in Amazon, Apple, Broadcom, Meta, Microsoft and Nvidia. The policy aimed to reduce regulation around artificial intelligence.
The filing did not specify whether those purchases occurred before or after the administration announced the plan. It also showed purchases of companies unrelated to AI on the same day.
Earlier in 2026, Trump’s advisers also bought between $200,000 and $680,000 worth of Palantir shares before Trump later praised the company on social media. During the same reporting period, another account sold between $1 million and $5 million of Palantir stock.
Trump says America leads crypto and AI
During a CNBC interview, Trump defended both his family’s cryptocurrency business and his administration’s support for digital assets.
He argued that the United States must remain the global leader in cryptocurrency or risk allowing China to take the lead. Trump added that America already holds the top position in both crypto and artificial intelligence.

“We’re number one in crypto, and we’re also number one in AI,” Trump said, adding that the United States is ahead of China in artificial intelligence development.
Trump also claimed Chinese President Xi Jinping praised the strength of the US economy during a recent meeting, saying America had become “the hottest country in the world.”
