A Bloomberg analysis found that Donald Trump made roughly 28,700 securities trades from his return to the White House through the report date, a period of about 17 months, or about 80 trades per market day. His 2025 disclosure listed more than 21,000 trades, averaging 85 per market day. Richard Painter said ownership of the account by a president could create a conflict of interest; he did not allege that anyone traded on government information and said the disclosures cannot prove insider trading.
