Trump's oil and gas stock trades continued during Iran war, filings show
President Trump has accused oil companies like Chevron and ExxonMobil of "making too much money." He owns shares of both.
During the ongoing U.S. war with Iran, President Trump's financial disclosure filings reveal that his investment accounts continued to execute stock trades in oil and natural gas companies, amounting to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Despite the war's fluctuations, which led to a ceasefire and its subsequent restart, Trump's portfolio maintained and potentially increased the value of his holdings in oil and gas companies.
The White House maintains that Trump is not involved in these transactions, with independent managers handling his portfolio decisions.
