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

The article reports that President Trump executed 94 trades in 'Magnificent Seven' tech stocks during Q1 2026, totaling roughly $50–$70 million across 64 buys and 30 sales. He net bought Apple (AAPL) and Alphabet (GOOG) while selling Tesla (TSLA) and executing sizable Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN) and Nvidia (NVDA) transactions, including a >$1m NVDA purchase on Feb. 10. The activity has prompted conflict-of-interest concerns and scrutiny because trades occurred near public engagements and corporate news. Market impact is likely limited given the scale relative to these firms’ market caps, but the disclosure could spur political and regulatory attention and short-term investor focus on the affected stocks.
