Since the start of President Trump’s second term in January 2025, he has been making investments through an investment account in a revocable trust fund managed by his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr. The White House explained that the president’s investment account is independently managed by a third-party financial institution, and that investments are made through computer model portfolios that automatically track indexes such as the Charles Schwab 1000 Index. The White House emphasized that the president and his family do not participate in choosing or deciding the timing of trades. Last year, President Trump earned more than $2 billion in profits, much of which came from investments in cryptocurrency companies.
