President Donald Trump reportedly bought up to $5 million worth of shares in Axon Enterprise (NASDAQ:AXON) — the maker of Tasers, body cameras, and policing software — just two weeks before U.S.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement floated a major procurement plan that appears closely aligned with the company’s core products, CNBC reported Monday.
The report said Trump purchased between $1 million and $5 million worth of Axon stock on Feb. 10, according to federal financial disclosures filed in May.
Two weeks later, on Feb. 24, ICE issued a procurement notice seeking about 17,800 new Tasers, along with unlimited cartridges and training, it added.
Notably, Trump's purchase came weeks after federal agents in Minneapolis fatally shot two U.S. citizens protesting an immigration crackdown in the city.
