Documents reveal: these are the stocks Donald Trump bought in June
Official reports disclosed in the United States show an unprecedented volume of transactions in just one month. These are the companies that caught the attention of the U.S. President.
Donald Trump continues to prove that the White House is occupied by a president who, alongside his role as leader of the free world, is also actively engaged in stock market trading. While the president's portfolio is reportedly managed by external investment managers, criticism and concern are growing in the United States regarding the president's personal involvement in portfolio operations. Disclosed documents reveal that Donald Trump performed more than 1,000 securities transactions during the month of June alone.
Given the high volume of activity, it is worth focusing on the major purchases (in the range of one to five million dollars each):
Two prominent purchases by the president come from the same niche: payment processing giants. The first is Visa (ticker V). Visa trades at a market value of 680 billion dollars and has risen by 58% over the last 5 years. The forward P/E ratio of the stock is 28. If in 2021 Visa closed the year with an operating profit of 15.8 billion dollars, it closed 2025 with 26 billion dollars. Another company is Mastercard (ticker MA). It has a market cap of 500 billion dollars and a forward P/E ratio of 29. In 2021, the company generated an operating profit of 10.2 billion dollars, closing 2025 with 19.4 billion dollars. Mastercard's stock has risen by 60% over the last five years.
Beyond the payment giants, Donald Trump purchased shares in Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway. Berkshire is a holding company with significant exposure to the insurance sector and the fossil fuel sector, which is currently flourishing due to rising oil prices amid tensions in the Middle East. The stock has risen by 73% over the last five years.
Additionally, a significant amount was invested in Cintas Corporation (ticker CTAS). This is a company with a market cap of 81 billion dollars, specializing in the design and supply of uniforms for various organizations. The stock has yielded a 107% return for investors over the last five years, and it enjoys a P/E ratio of 37, driven by high profit margins (over 20% operating margin).
