President Donald Trump disclosed more than 500 securities transactions in August, including a purchase of up to $25 million in Meta stock and an investment of as much as $5 million in SpaceX debt two days before he signed a sweeping policy aimed at expanding U.S. commercial space transportation, according to a newly released financial disclosure.
The 517 purchases and sales totaled roughly $74.3 million to $273.3 million, according to a CNBC analysis of Trump's August financial disclosure, which reports each item in a range of value. Purchases accounted for at least $44.2 million and sales at least $30.1 million, CNBC calculated.
The 18-page filing shows Trump's portfolio remained highly active, even as trading slowed from June and July, when he disclosed more than 1,000 transactions in each month.
The largest transaction was an Aug. 21 purchase of between $5 million and $25 million in Meta shares, amid a broader portfolio reshuffling that day. Trump also reported buying between $1 million and $5 million each of AT&T, ConocoPhillips, Abbott Laboratories, Netflix and Chevron the same day.
Meta did not immediately respond to CNBC's request for comment.
