Donald Trump profited from investment in Carrier's parent company

Donald Trump profited from an investment in the parent company of a business he has slammed for laying off 2,100 workers in Indiana and moving production to Mexico.
Trump earned interest income of $2,501 to $5,000 from an investment in a United Technologies Corp. bond, according to a new financial disclosure form he filed Wednesday with federal election officials.
The company owns two affiliates — Carrier Corp. and UTEC — that announced in February they were laying off workers at plants in Indianapolis and Huntington and moving manufacturing operations to Mexico. The companies make heating and air conditioning products.
Trump made Carrier's decision to eliminate about 1,400 jobs at its factory on the west side of Indianapolis a centerpiece of his campaign during the runup to Indiana's primary earlier this month. His victory in that contest sealed his status as the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.
