July 17, Fineko/abc.az. Donald Trump published positive social media posts about more than 20 companies shortly after his investment managers acquired shares in them, according to a report by CNN.

An analysis revealed at least 44 such transactions involving 21 major firms, including tech and industry heavyweights such as Nvidia, Apple, Tesla, GE Aerospace, and Eli Lilly. The posts frequently featured personal endorsements, quotes from executives, and links to favorable news articles, and in some instances, Trump announced policy decisions that could potentially benefit those businesses. However, the report notes there is no evidence that the posts were intended to manipulate stock values, and White House officials stated that the trades are executed by independent fund managers, pointing out that the vast majority of operations were not accompanied by any social media commentary.
