Trump delayed disclosure of tens of millions of dollars in stock trading, fined $200 again Odaily Planet Daily News: Trump's latest investment declaration documents show that he sold Microsoft and Amazon stocks worth $5 million to $25 million respectively in February this year, and bought the stocks of the two companies again in March, but failed to disclose them within the statutory 45 day period. Therefore, he was fined $200, which is the third time he has been fined for the same violation this year. It is worth noting that Trump also bought shares of Nvidia on February 10th, and a few days later Nvidia announced a multi-year cooperation agreement with Meta, causing the stock price to rise by about 2.5%; In addition, its purchase of Microsoft and Amazon stocks came several months before the Pentagon announced the deployment of confidential computing network technology contracts to the two companies. Trump did not sell his stock portfolio during his second term, and his assets were held in a trust managed by his children, which is different from the blind trust arrangement commonly used by previous presidents. At present, although both parties in the US Congress have repeatedly proposed bills to prohibit officials from trading stocks during their tenure, the progress of related legislation has been stalled.
