Congressional Trading

A live feed of stock-trade disclosures from the US Senate and House. Plus profiles of the most-watched traders and their known holdings.

Latest disclosed trades

Each trade must be reported within 45 days (STOCK Act) in a periodic transaction report, so the transaction date is always older than the filing date. The House and Senate clerks publish new reports as members file them; this feed checks the disclosure feed every hour and keeps a rolling three-month record of every filing it has seen, newest first - the count, its span and the newest filing date are shown above. Use the filter to find a member, ticker or trade type. Click any ticker for its chart.

About this page

The latest stock trades of US senators and representatives, tracked from the disclosures the STOCK Act requires: current holdings and most recent transactions per member, with party, tickers and links to each official congressional source.

Follow it with healthy skepticism. Disclosures can arrive up to 45 days after the trade, amounts are reported in wide ranges, and academic studies disagree on whether congressional portfolios beat the market at all. The page is best read as a transparency record, not a signal service.

Frequently asked questions

Is it legal for members of Congress to trade stocks?

Yes, though the STOCK Act of 2012 requires prompt public disclosure and bans trading on non-public information learned in office. Proposals to ban congressional stock trading outright resurface regularly but have not passed.

How current are congressional trading disclosures?

Members have up to 45 days to file a periodic transaction report after each trade, so everything here is inherently delayed. The clerks publish reports as they are filed and this page checks the feed every hour, but treat the data as a record of what happened, not a real-time feed.

Do politicians actually beat the market?

Research is mixed: early studies found large excess returns, later ones found little or none after the STOCK Act. Individual members have had famous runs, but the median portfolio looks ordinary.
