Trump’s tweets can cost a company billions of dollars. Here’s how...

If you were wondering whether tweets from Donald Trump were going stop, the answer as of Inauguration Day morning is: NO!

Hours before Trump was scheduled to take the oath of office as the nation's 45th president on Friday, Trump tweeted: "It all begins today!"

It all begins today! I will see you at 11:00 A.M. for the swearing-in. THE MOVEMENT CONTINUES - THE WORK BEGINS!

According to people close to the transition, as reported by The New York Times, Trump has traded in his Android phone for a secure, encrypted device approved by the Secret Service with a new number that few people possess.

The Trump team was not immediately available to respond to CNBC's request for comment.
