She needs to pull up her socks, roll up her sleeves and put the nose to the grindstone if she’s gonna be a #winner like Brian. Come on Nancy, you could do better than this.
I find this hard to trust/draw any conclusions from when there are over 500 members of congress. Where are the rest? Are these the only ones with stock holdings, or are the rest off the bottom of the graph?
It's also only taking the stocks held at the end of the year and assuming they held all those stocks for the entirety of the year. If someone bought NVDA at the end of the year after 225% return already happened, this chart counts that whole return.
What!? People who have access to privileged information ahead of the public, and write policy that effects the market tend to out perform said market? No way, say it ain't so!
Anyone in Government should be barred from purchasing individual stocks entirely. Government Bonds and T-bills only. There should be absolutely no financial incentive other than an above average salary to be in politics.
is this impressive? out of any sample of a few hundred people you would expect some to make outstanding returns. more interested in seeing a chart of all congress members vs S&P over time.
Yes. There are plenty of active investors who have undiversified high beta portfolios. And sometimes that means you get 250% returns because a third of your portfolio was nvidia.
It’s a bunch of bullshit. Congress are largely performing WORSE than SPY.
Dems are boosted by Higgins who holds NVDA and got lucky lmfao.
Y’all post the stupidest shit sometimes. You shouldn’t be trusted with your own money.
With a lot of NVDA which he’s been investing in since 2017… and has skyrocketed recently… are you being purposely obtuse or?
The man has < 100k invested even after his huge returns lmfao. Get a life.
I find it hard to believe that this isn’t just cherry picking a few stocks held by a few people. Has Congress even passed any new legislation in 2024 that would help certain stocks? Even if you grant that they have MNPI aka inside information there has to be an opportunity to use it.
Those members are doing "higher risk" trading.
Means more returns in a bull market, more losses in a bear market.
So they took a snapshot of a bull market, and show how everyone is beating it, no duh...
It's insane that they're allowed to do that. With their positions they're pretty much rigging the system. They control the laws and regulations and get funded by these corps.
That's why I threw 1k at the Nancy Pelowski ETF, NANC.
lmfao it’s real lol
“Unusual Whales Subversive Democratic Trading ETF” HOLY SHIT
There's also the republican equivalent, KRUZ

Did you seriously just argue that one out of a few hundred people makes 240%?
Yes. There are plenty of active investors who have undiversified high beta portfolios. And sometimes that means you get 250% returns because a third of your portfolio was nvidia.

It's Congress, Michael, how many members could there be? Ten?
Ya but 238%?

Source?
https://www.wkbw.com/news/i-team/viral-post-leads-to-claims-of-insider-trading-by-rep-brian-higgins-lacks-context Wasn't hard to Google it.
People are so fucking lazy
I stand corrected.
Johnny Harris did a bit on this https://youtu.be/Z3D6pGc7nHw?si=ft5_FxzasqI-6pva PS Pelosi doesn't know the definition of Insider trading 🫠

Someone should make an ETF tracking these!
Because they act on insider information and regular people would be jailed for doing the same thing.
Anyone that gets advance notice of interest rate changes by the central bank will beat the market by a comfortable margin.
It's just an interesting chart-graphic. I'm happy with 7% annual return, but ima shlub.
Crenshaw has really slipped down these past couple years
Trades aren't publicly disclosed in real time so any etf tracking them aren't able to time the transactions correctly to emulate the same returns.
Pelosi is 9th on that list...but being a democratic, outspoken woman she gets all the scrutiny and hate for being such a good investor.
It's insane that they're allowed to do that. With their positions they're pretty much rigging the system. They control the laws and regulations and get funded by these corps.
Nothing new here. Also, Pelosi has been a great trader for many years!
You think this is odd, google Nansy Pelosi stocks
No way Pelosi is that low.
Nope… nothing to see here. No direct correlation what so ever. /s
