    Trump's July trading activity disclosed, triggering scrutiny

    CNBC and other outlets report the financial disclosure showing Trump's accounts recorded heavy trading volumes in July. The White House says independent advisors manage the accounts without Trump's input, but the activity has drawn previous scrutiny from lawmakers.

    “Outside financial firms oversee the accounts through automated model portfolios benchmarked to indexes such as the Schwab 1000, and that Trump plays no role in trading decisions.”
