@ericnomics: Trump made over 1,000 stock trades in the month of June, adding up to $263 million. Some of these trades coincidentally lined up with government awards, such as Boeing being awarded a $2.8 billion contract the same day that Trump bought the Boeing stock. When I used to work in finance, I was restricted from trading individual stocks. Someone with material non-public information and in power should not be able to trade individual stocks.
