On October 8, CNBC reported that the latest August financial disclosure documents released by U.S. President Trump show he conducted 517 securities transactions in the month, with a total value ranging from $74.3 million to $273.3 million. These included purchases of up to $25 million in Meta stock and up to $5 million in senior unsecured bonds issued by SpaceX.

Notably, this SpaceX bond transaction occurred on August 18, two days prior to Trump signing a national policy aimed at expanding U.S. commercial space transportation. Furthermore, the filings reveal that on August 21, he rebalanced his portfolio by buying shares in companies such as AT&T and Netflix, while trimming holdings in AMD and Nvidia. Neither the White House nor SpaceX has responded to requests for comment.
