  Content	Trump Administration Now Holds Stakes In 5 Public Companies: Here's A List—INTC, MP, LAC And More Rishabh Mishra Tue, October 7, 2025 at 10:30 PM EDT 7 min read MP INTC LAC.TO TMQ.TO X Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. In a significant shift in U.S. industrial policy, the Donald Trump administration has acquired direct ownership stakes in five major publicly traded companies. This series of interventions, framed as a national security strategy, marks a new era of government involvement in key industries to secure domestic supply chains for semiconductors, critical minerals, and steel. Trump Administration’s New Portfolio The government’s acquisitions include a 10% stake in semiconductor giant Intel Corp. (NASDAQ: INTC ), a 15% stake in rare earth producer MP Materials (NYSE: MP ), a 10% stake in Lithium Americas Corp. (NYSE: LAC ), a 10% stake in Trilogy Metals Inc. (NYSE: TMQ ), and a “golden share” in US Steel Corporation. Trending: If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a 7-9% target yield with monthly dividends would you invest in it ? Intel The administration converted previously awarded CHIPS Act grants into a $5.7 billion investment for a 10% equity stake in the semiconductor giant. The unprecedented deal is designed to prevent a potential spinoff of Intel’s deeply unprofitable foundry business. The agreement also includes a five-year warrant allowing the government to acquire an additional 5% at $20 a share if Intel’s ownership in the foundry unit drops below 51%. Completing the deal on Aug. 22, the stock closed at $24.80 per share on that day, returning nearly 47.54% by Oct. 6, closing at $36.59 per share. This stock maintained a stronger price trend over the short, medium, and long terms, with a poor growth ranking. Additional performance details are available here. MP Materials To counter China’s dominance in the global rare earth market , the Department of Defense (DoD) entered a public-private partnership with MP Materials. 繼續閱讀 Through the deal, the DoD acquired a stake representing about 15% of all shares, making it potentially the company’s largest shareholder. MP Materials operates the only fully integrated rare earth mining and processing facility in the U.S. Finishing the deal on July 11, the stock has gained 64.77% since then, jumping from $45.11 per share to $74.33 as of Oct. 6 close. MP maintained a stronger price trend over the short, medium, and long terms, with a poor growth ranking. Additional performance details are available here.

The loan supports the company’s Thacker Pass lithium mine in Nevada, which is expected to become the largest lithium operation in the Western Hemisphere when production begins in 2028. The project is intended to strengthen America’s domestic lithium supply chain for products like electric vehicle batteries. It has advanced by 20% since the government’s stake acquisition on Oct. 1 at 7.04 per share to $8.45 as of Oct. 6 close. LAC maintained a stronger price trend over the short, medium, and long terms. Additional performance details are available here. Trilogy Metals The White House announced plans to take a 10% stake in Trilogy Metals through a $35.6 million investment to support mining exploration in Alaska’s Ambler Mining District. The investment includes warrants to purchase an additional 7.5% of the company. The move is designed to unlock access to one of the world’s largest undeveloped copper-zinc mineral belts. The deal announcement saw the stock skyrocket 215.30% in after-hours trading on Monday. TMQ maintained a stronger price trend over the short, medium, and long terms. Additional performance details are available here. US Steel Corporation In a unique arrangement, the administration secured a “golden share” in US Steel as part of its acquisition by Japan’s Nippon Steel Corp. (OTCPK: NISTF). This does not represent a typical equity stake but instead grants the U.S. government permanent veto authority over key corporate decisions, including relocating the headquarters from Pittsburgh, shifting production overseas, or closing facilities. The government acquired this golden share in the firm on June 18, and since then, the OTC market stock is down 77.80%. Trump Administration Eyes Defense Contractors This strategy of direct investment may extend further, as Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick confirmed the administration is considering buying ownership stakes in major defense contractors. Lutnick pointed to firms like Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE: LMT ), noting that since they derive nearly all their revenue from the U.S. government, they are “basically an arm of the U.S. government”. The news prompted a rally in defense stocks.

Building Wealth Across More Than Just the Market Building a resilient portfolio means thinking beyond a single asset or market trend. Economic cycles shift, sectors rise and fall, and no one investment performs well in every environment. That's why many investors look to diversify with platforms that provide access to real estate, fixed-income opportunities, professional financial guidance, precious metals, and even self-directed retirement accounts. By spreading exposure across multiple asset classes, it becomes easier to manage risk, capture steady returns, and create long-term wealth that isn't tied to the fortunes of just one company or industry. Arrived Homes Backed by Jeff Bezos, Arrived Homes makes real estate investing accessible with a low barrier to entry. Investors can buy fractional shares of single-family rentals and vacation homes starting with as little as $100 . This allows everyday investors to diversify into real estate, collect rental income, and build long-term wealth without needing to manage properties directly. Worthy Bonds For those seeking fixed-income style returns without Wall Street complexity, Worthy Property Bonds offers SEC-qualified, interest-bearing bonds starting at just $10 . Investors earn a fixed 7% annual return, with funds deployed to small U.S. businesses. The bonds are fully liquid, meaning you can cash out anytime, making them attractive for conservative investors looking for steady, passive income. IRA Financial Self-directed investors looking to take greater control of their retirement savings may consider IRA Financial. The platform enables you to use a self-directed IRA or Solo 401(k) to invest in alternative assets such as real estate, private equity, or even crypto . This flexibility empowers retirement savers to go beyond traditional stocks and bonds, building diversified portfolios that align with their long-term wealth strategies. Moomoo Idle Cash Moomoo isn't just for trading — it's also one of the most attractive places to park cash. New users can earn a promotional 8.1% APY on uninvested cash , combining a 3.85% base rate with a 4.25% booster once activated. On top of that, eligible new users can also score up to $1,000 in free Nvidia stock—but the real draw here is the ability to earn bank-beating interest rates without having to move into riskier assets. SoFi Alt Investments SoFi gives members access to a wide range of professionally managed alternative funds , covering everything from commodities and private credit to venture capital, hedge funds, and real estate. These funds can provide broader diversification, help smooth out portfolio volatility, and potentially boost total returns over time. Many of the funds have relatively low minimums, making alternative investing accessible. Range Wealth Management Range Wealth Management takes a modern, subscription-based approach to financial planning. Instead of charging asset-based fees, the platform offers flat-fee tiers that provide unlimited access to fiduciary advisors along with AI-powered planning tools . Investors can link their accounts without moving assets, while higher-level plans unlock advanced support for taxes, real estate, and multi-generational wealth strategies. This model makes Range especially appealing to high-earning professionals who want holistic advice and predictable pricing. American Hartford Gold For investors concerned about inflation or seeking portfolio protection, American Hartford Gold provides a simple way to buy and hold physical gold and silver within an IRA or direct delivery . With a minimum investment of $10,000, the platform caters to those looking to preserve wealth through precious metals while maintaining the option to diversify retirement accounts. It's a favored choice for conservative investors who want tangible assets that historically hold value during uncertain markets.
