President Trump's investment accounts made more than 1,000 trades in June, with 550 purchases and 450 sales, according to his latest government disclosure released Saturday. The White House said the trading is handled by independent managers using computer models that automatically replicate stock indexes.

Among the largest trades were purchases of at least $1 million each in Berkshire Hathaway, Visa and Mastercard on June 18, the same day the accounts sold more than $1 million worth of Meta Platforms and Motorola. That activity occurred a day after the president signed an interim peace deal in Versailles, France to end the conflict with Iran.

White House spokesman Davis Ingle stated that neither the president nor any family member can direct or influence the portfolio, which is held in a revocable trust overseen by Donald Trump Jr. All decisions are made by third-party financial institutions through discretionary accounts invested in computer-based model portfolios such as the Schwab 1000.

Trump made more than $2 billion in 2025, largely from crypto ventures. The Trump Organization said the family adopted automated strategies like direct indexing to alleviate conflict-of-interest concerns, which can involve large volumes of stock purchases and sales over time.
