Trump traded over $50 million in 'Magnificent 7' stocks last quarter, loading up on Apple and Google and selling Tesla

Source: Yahoo! Finance

President Trump made 94 different trades of “Magnificent Seven” stocks in the first quarter of 2026, a new ethics disclosure shows, executing millions of dollars in transactions even as he was meeting with and often promoting these top tech companies.

The trades were valued at between $50 million and $70 million across 64 buy orders and 30 stock sales.

The president, on net, loaded up on Apple (AAPL) and Alphabet (GOOG), while selling more Tesla stock than he bought, a Yahoo Finance analysis found. His account also executed more than a dozen transactions each of Nvidia (NVDA), Meta Platforms (META), Microsoft (MSFT), and Amazon (AMZN), rounding out the Magnificent Seven.

I think his first term administration was filled with institutionalists who likely wouldn't allow it. He didn't make that mistake this time.
