Several major AI stocks rose in early Monday premarket trading after President Donald Trump told reporters the U.S. government may take equity in Big Tech companies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Nvidia rose over 1%, while fellow chipmakers Marvell and Micron climbed between 4% and 7% and AMD and Intel similarly gained more than 1%, per Investing.com. <\/span>Trump notably told reporters on Air Force One on Friday that the U.S. government potentially taking a stake in major AI companies \u201ccould be a beautiful thing.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s something very interesting about it, where it almost becomes a partnership with the American public,\u201d Trump said.<\/span>\u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s like you make them [partners] in this revolution. It would be a beautiful thing. \u2026 It would make \u2019em rich.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman previously held several discussions with senior U.S. officials about the idea periodically throughout President Donald Trump\u2019s second term, two people familiar with the matter told NOTUS. <\/span>(RELATED: <\/strong>Trump Admin Reportedly Close To Gobbling Up Stakes In Key Growing Industry)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

OpenAI and the White House each did not respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation\u2019s request for comment.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Altman first mentioned the idea directly to Trump in early 2025, and has spoken with senior administration officials recently with the goal of helping AI\u2019s economic benefits become more widespread across the public, according to NOTUS.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While the plan currently remains ongoing and specific details have not been finalized, discussions have centered around the AI companies voluntarily giving shares to the U.S. government, according to NOTUS. The returns on the investment could then be used to support public initiatives, including distributing potential dividend payments to U.S. households, one person told NOTUS.<\/span><\/p>\n

Altman has also weighed the idea of a new program that could work similarly to Trump Accounts, the administration\u2019s tax-advantaged savings and investment accounts for American children, The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In November 2025, Altman said that his company had previously discussed with the U.S. government the idea of federal loan guarantees to boost the construction of chip factories across the nation, Reuters reported.<\/span><\/p>\n

On June 2, Trump unveiled an executive order on AI which aims to \u201censure that the best and most secure technology is deployed rapidly to confront any and all threats to our country.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The U.S. \u201cshould lead on AI by continuing to develop the very best models, making sure they\u2019re safe, and getting cyber tools into the hands of trusted defenders,\u201d Altman wrote in an X post responding to Trump\u2019s executive order.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe new EO gets the balance right,\u201d he added.<\/span><\/p>\n
