US Government Equity Portfolio Surges to $26.7B Across 30 Deals

Trump administration holds $26.7B in 30 equity stakes, led by Intel. Holdings span Commerce, Defense, and DFC, lacking a unified public ledger.

Woofun AI reports that the Trump administration has accumulated approximately $26.7 billion across roughly 30 equity or equity-like transactions. The largest position is a 9.9% stake in Intel, valued at around $42 billion, alongside a $400 million investment in MP Materials and a "golden share" in U.S. Steel. These holdings are distributed among the Department of Commerce (17 deals), the Department of Defense (7 deals), the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (6 deals), and the Department of Energy (2 deals). Only the DFC possesses clear statutory authority for such investments. There is no unified government equity ledger, with the Council on Foreign Relations maintaining the most comprehensive public tracking. Several transactions, including nine quantum computing deals announced by Commerce, remain at the agreement or listing stage.
