Trump makes unverified stock-market claim in Truth Social posting spree

US President Donald Trump posted a stream of reportedly AI-generated images and a series of sweeping, unverified claims on Truth Social on Sunday, according to CNBC.

The posts included Trump’s claim that he had made “hundreds of billions of dollars on stocks”. The source material does not establish whether the statement referred to personal gains, broader financial outcomes or another measure.

The stock-market claim has not been independently verified. CNBC’s report does not provide the full content of the posts, their publication times, the images or supporting evidence for the financial statement.

Trump’s posts were reported on 7 September. The episode was framed by the source as a markets-related event centred on the president’s social-media activity and the unverified stock claim.
