Congressional Trades
Disclosed Periodic Transaction Reports (PTRs) ranked by each member's average per-buy excess return vs the S&P 500 — measured over a 6-month (180-day) hold from the disclosure date, across buys filed in the trailing 36 months — weighted by legislative effectiveness and committee power. · as of 2026-07-23
What the delay costs you
The STOCK Act gives members up to 45 days to disclose, and the filings in this feed arrived an average of 91 days after the trade. By the time a disclosure is public the market has had weeks to react — you are reading month-old positioning, not a live entry signal. Treat it as a map of where well-connected money is leaning, never as a fill price.
What you can actually learn
Members trade the industries their committees oversee. A defense buy from an Armed Services seat, or a chip buy from Science & Tech, is the trade worth a second look.
One politician buying a stock is noise. Several — ideally across both parties — accumulating the same name in the same window is the real signal.
A $1M–$5M purchase carries far more information than a $1K–$15K dabble. Weight the disclosed dollar range, not the headcount.
The law allows up to 45 days to file, so a trade can be weeks old before it is public. Read it to see where well-connected money is leaning — never as a live entry signal.
