Trump’s personal stake in the malaria-drug maker Sanofi could be as small as $99

As President Donald Trump has persistently discussed the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine, critics have wondered about his motivation, given the drug’s far-from-certain performance on the global stage as a treatment for coronavirus, and the Food and Drug Administration’s refusal so far to approve it as a treatment for COVID-19.
The New York Times says Trump has a “small personal stake” in Sanofi, the French drug manufacturer that produces the drug. The headline is all that counts and they know it.
The report doesn’t say how small, but it notes that his three family trusts have investments in a Dodge & Cox mutual fund whose largest holding is Sanofi. A fund that matches this description is the Dodge & Cox International Stock Fund DODFX, +1.32%, which at last check was 3.3% invested in Sanofi.
Trump’s 2019 financial-disclosure form lists stakes in Family Trusts 1, 2 and 3 valued at between $1,001 and $15,000. So if Trump has the maximum $15,000 in each of the trusts, he holds a stake in Sanofi that’s worth $1,485 — and, at the minimum, just $99.

Mika started this rumor and it is now a headline that they hope no one figures out that his portfolio is probably loaded with a lot of Rx drugs and this isn't the gotcha they want it to be.

the 2 numbers I heard was 99 dollars and then Forbes said it was 3000 dollars.
Either way it is not enough to influence a man of Trump's wealth. So this is what i think about it.

Even SNOPES says this story is mostly BS.

This is a nothing burger with regard to DJT. But, if they start looking closer at all financial relationships between government officials and big pharma it will be a poop show for all of them. They all have made big money off of big pharma. No doubt whatsoever.

Or 300K, it's a non story. We're it 3M+, that's quite different.

All of trumps pre-election stock holdings are in a trust he can not touch while in office

The funniest part of all of this is Chloroquine is a generic drug that can be made by anyone. He wouldn't even make money

Nobody on earth knows everything that is in mutual funds they hold.
nobody
What if he has a fund that mimics the S&P 500? OMG he has a "financial stake" in everything!
I hate that stories that are completely idiotic actually resonate with a significant portion of the population. I wish we didn't have so many stupid people. This is just stupid on the face of it and it deserves no discussion but when something like this is brought up the same sort of idiots who believe it would take a lack of response as "proof" it must be true.
