President Donald Trump’s latest Office of Government Ethics transaction reports reveal hundreds of additional stock trades executed during April and May 2026, substantially expanding on the January through March activity disclosed earlier this year. The newly released filings show Trump actively trading across AI, semiconductors, defense, crypto, financials, and healthcare during a period when his administration was navigating the Iran conflict, reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, and high-level trade negotiations with China. The reports were released alongside Trump's annual financial disclosure, which detailed hundreds of millions of dollars in crypto-related income and other assets.
- Among the largest newly disclosed April purchases were Meta Platforms ($META) and Microsoft ($MSFT), each valued between $5 million and $25 million, alongside purchases of Palantir ($PLTR) and UnitedHealth ($UNH) valued between $1 million and $5 million.
- Trump also trimmed several existing technology positions, including selling between $5 million and $25 million of Adobe ($ADBE) and between $1 million and $5 million of Alphabet ($GOOGL). In the May periodic transaction report, he disclosed purchasing an additional $1 million to $5 million of Adobe ($ADBE).
- Trump continued adding to semiconductor holdings. The new filings show additional purchases of Intel ($INTC) and Western Digital ($WDC). He previously disclosed multiple purchases earlier this year. Intel has gained as much as 205% since those earlier March purchases, while Western Digital has returned as much as 128%.
- Additional May transactions included purchases of Amazon ($AMZN), GE Aerospace ($GE), Robinhood ($HOOD), Coinbase ($COIN), and additional shares of Palantir ($PLTR), further expanding positions disclosed in earlier reports.
- The April and May trades occurred as the administration managed rapidly evolving developments involving Iran, the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, AI policy, and U.S.-China trade negotiations, placing several of the traded sectors at the center of major market-moving headlines.
