Nestled among the thousands of stock trades President Trump disclosed last week are transactions in companies the president has fiercely criticized.
As just one example, the president's account traded Walt Disney (DIS) shares worth up to about $6 million in the first quarter of 2026 while his multi-pronged feud with the "House of Mouse" raged on.
Trump also had significant exposure to the banking sector — JPMorgan (JPM) in particular — even as he was suing the bank for $5 billion over the issue of "debanking."
The trades were part of Trump’s recent 113-page disclosure, which spanned more than 3,700 trades made under the president's name, and they contrast with the thousands of other trades in companies the president was more keen to praise.

Stock manipulation, threaten the company and hope the share prices go down. Then make your purchase.
