President Donald Trump purchased more than $1.1 million (£850,000) in Netflix bonds while simultaneously questioning the company's market power and pressuring its board, according to the latest US Office of Government Ethics disclosures.
The filings, released recently, show the trades occurred in December and January, the exact window when Netflix was locked in a high-stakes bidding war with Paramount Skydance to acquire Warner Bros Discovery. While the President publicly warned that a Netflix-Warner tie-up 'could be a problem' for competition, his private family trust was quietly increasing its stake in the streaming giant's debt.
