Donald Trump's accounts bought Nvidia stock five times in April and sold it once. The trades are in his own filings with the Office of Government Ethics. Narativ checked each April and May Nvidia line on the page.

The largest purchase came April 9, in the $1,000,001 to $5 million range. A sale in the same range followed April 17. Two more purchases came April 27.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio oversaw a classified memo on Huang, the Nvidia chief, in the weeks before Trump's May trip to Beijing, The New York Times reported. The memo covered Huang's relationship with Alice Huang. U.S. intelligence agencies believe she spied for China, NBC News reported. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick was sent it, Axios reported Tuesday.

The trading kept going after Rubio warned Trump himself.
