US President Donald Trump made more than 1,000 securities trades in June, including purchases of Berkshire Hathaway and Mastercard, Bloomberg reported, citing a financial disclosure published on Saturday.

Palantir Trades Around US-Iran Deal
Trump's activity in Palantir was spread across several transactions.
He bought a small amount of the software company on June 3, then sold larger amounts on June 16 and June 18. He bought shares again on June 23 and June 24, after the US and Iran agreed to a peace deal on June 14.
Berkshire Hathaway was among his larger purchases. Trump bought $1 million to $5 million worth of its shares on June 18 and sold a smaller amount six days later.
He also sold $1 million to $5 million of Meta shares on June 18 and later bought smaller amounts.
The biggest single transaction disclosed for June was a $5 million to $25 million sale of a Vanguard Group ETF on June 22.

More Than 21,000 Trades Last Year
The June activity is part of a much larger pattern.
Trump made more than 21,000 securities trades in 2025, with the transactions collectively valued at between $600 million and $1.86 billion, according to Bloomberg.
The trading has sometimes coincided with major market events involving Trump. The filings also recorded instances in which the same security was bought and sold on the same day.
White House Defence
The disclosures have drawn attention because Trump is both president and an active investor. The White House has maintained that there is no conflict because his investments are managed independently.
Eric Trump, executive vice president of the Trump Organization, has said the assets are held in a blind trust.
White House spokesman Davis Ingle said the investments are handled through discretionary accounts and computer-based portfolios designed to track recognised indexes.
"All holdings are maintained in discretionary accounts and invested through computer-based model portfolios that automatically replicate recognized indexes, such as the Schwab 1000," Ingle said.
"Neither President Trump nor any member of his family has any ability to direct, influence, or provide input regarding how the portfolio is invested or when investments are bought or sold. All investment decisions are made entirely by independent managers."
