A Timeline of Trump’s Intel Trades
Here’s a timeline that plots Trump’s Intel trades against Intel’s stock price. I’ve included a few major policy changes and announcements.
It’s a rough sketch that tries to put the Intel trades in context. Maybe others will find it useful.
Trump boasted in January of this year that he had made “tens of billions of dollars for the American people” in the four months after he converted Intel’s Biden CHIPS Act grant to an equity stake. Shares of Intel jumped from the mid-forties to the mid-fifties on this claim, hitting a 52-week high.
Trump’s 278-T disclosures show that he waited things out for a couple of months, as shares settled back into the mid-forties. He started buying shares in early March and continued buying throughout the month.
The president’s disclosure shows him buying Intel stock on six separate occasions. The transactions were relatively small, some around $15,000 others in the 15-50K range, and all below 100,000, according to the disclosure. Fortune notes that “several” of these trades were “unsolicited” (meaning they were not made on the recommendation of a broker). By my count, four of the six trades made in March were unsolicited.
Here’s another look* at Trump’s March Intel trades listed by date and organized into a table. Trades marked “unsolicited” are so described in the president’s disclosure form; those not so described are left blank.
The trades are relatively small, three in the 15-50K range, only one in the 50-100K range. Let’s not get hung up on that. The dollar amount of the bet is not really the issue, at least as far as presidential ethics and Article II Section 4 misdemeanors go. And, pace Vance, Trump’s wealth does not mean that the rules don’t apply.
It’s also worth noting that the four trades marked unsolicited are bigger bets than the two trades of 17 and 23 March. The first move, on 2 March, looks pretty confident, the kind of move one might make on reliable information. It was repeated in two steps the following week.
March was a good month to buy. Shares took off at the very start of April on news that the company bought out Apollo Global’s stake in an Irish fab. As the chart shows, shares jumped about 9 percent on the day of the announcement (April 1). It was a breakaway event.
Intel’s press release names some of the many players involved in this transaction.
Among them, Skadden Arps, the law firm that advised Intel in the US government’s acquisition of the equity stake. Under public pressure from Trump, Skadden had previously agreed, in March of 2025, to provide “$100 million in pro bono legal services to causes the president supports.” A shareholder lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery calls out the obvious conflict of interest.
Apollo came away from the deal with a 27 percent return on its initial investment: $3 billion in less than two years. The deal happened quickly (but it didn’t happen overnight), and it’s unclear exactly who was involved in or privy to the buyback negotiations. Certain people had to be. For example, the CEO of Apollo Global: Marc Rowan, billionaire Wharton alumnus, big republican donor, and a member of Trump’s Board of Peace. After the 2024 election, Trump considered appointing Rowan Secretary of the Treasury.
Strong earnings announced on April 23 further boosted the stock. A week later, on April 30, Trump posted that “Intel stock continues to rise.” That’s true: since April, the stock has climbed steadily, reaching a record high of 129.44.
The news that sent Intel to that record high, tripling Trump’s stake, was the May 8 announcement of the Intel-Apple deal. The deal was in the works for a year or so. Now there are reports that Trump “brokered,” or claims to have brokered, that deal. It would come as no surprise if he were taking credit for Howard Lutnick’s work. Either way, it’s not a good look.
None of this is.
*I added this table and the three paragraphs discussing it on 23 May 2026. I created it in connection with another post I am drafting then realized it belonged here, not there.
