Trump's financial disclosure reveals 2 Coupang stock trades in June

U.S. President Donald Trump made two trades in Coupang Inc. shares in June, according to a financial disclosure report filed with the U.S. Office of Government Ethics on Aug. 22. The report, released on the same day as the committee's interim staff report accusing the Korean government of discriminatory attacks against Coupang and other American-owned businesses, revealed that Trump sold shares worth between US$1,001 and $15,000 on June 3 and purchased shares worth between $15,001 and $50,000 on June 24.

The trades came amid rising U.S. criticism over Korean authorities' handling of the Coupang data breach, which has led to tensions between Seoul and Washington.
