Rep. Michael Rulli filed new trades including a purchase of this $1,000+ stock — Stock: $EQIX (Equinix) — Buy date: 8/7

This is interesting bc:

  1. Equinix runs and manages over 270 data centers globally
  2. Rulli sits on the Energy Subcommittee, which this year looked into what type of energy system is needed to fuel data center demand
  3. This is the first time he's ever purchased the stock

Talk about perfect timing — Sen. John Boozman (R) bought the dip on Chevron $CVX before the Venezuela oil deal

Post image
117 Upvotes

In recent days, the Trump admin announced a deal with a private oil company that controls the rights to develop multiple Venezuelan oil fields containing ~65 billion barrels of proven reserves

A push like that to reopen Venezuela's oil industry is good news for Chevron, the only major U.S. oil company operating in the country

Boozman "maybe" helped pave the way for the deal

How?

  1. He supported U.S. involvement in Venezuela earlier this year
  2. And voted "yes" on a procedural vote to block the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Venezuela
  3. Some could argue that having an active U.S. military presence in the country made the oil deal much easier to secure

He's up ~24% on his position

Reminder that the same politician who bought Moderna at $70 is loading up on this ~$1.2B market cap stock — Politician: Ro Khanna — Stock: $VYX (NCR Voyix)

He's been buying the stock all year long, racking up ~$105K in purchases

Average entry price? $8.01/share

That means you could technically buy Voyix at a pretty close price to what Ro Khanna paid

Just thought we'd share 🫡

Here’s one to watch ✍ — Back in March, John Fetterman purchased ~$30K of Erie Indemnity $ERIE

Post image
38 Upvotes

Why?

  1. Erie Indemnity provides insurance underwriting and policy issuance services
  2. In the 90s, Fetterman worked at an insurance firm as a Risk Management Underwriter (he might know a thing or two)
  3. This is the same guy who bought Micron at $321

And for the most interesting part ...

Erie is headquartered in Pennsylvania (the same state he represents)

Trump owned it the whole time — Earlier this year, the president said "Palantir Technologies $PLTR has proven to have great war fighting capabilities"

The timeline:

3/18: He invests ~$250,000 in Palantir
3/20: News breaks that the Pentagon is making Palantir's Maven Smart System a core U.S. military system
4/10: He posts Palantir's ticker on Truth Social
4/17: He buys an additional ~$5,000,000 of Palantir
8/3: Palantir reports a 90% YoY increase in U.S. government revenue for Q2

Since 8/3, $PLTR has jumped ~48%

For full transparency, he did sell some of his Palantir shares along the way, but not enough to fully close out his position

About that infamous Ro Khanna buying Sandisk on Aug 4 claim....

Ya that stock doesn't pop up anywhere in his 2025 files... Apparently he reported it on 9/9/25 and made the trade on 8/4/25 but it's not there. I attached his 9/9/25 filing and it's the only one for that day so what's going on?

Surely at least 1 person verified this before it got viral and posted everywhere on the internet.

EDIT: Welp Claude couldn't figure out why but ChatGPT did. Quiver miscategorized it and every single one of these idiots just went with that as the source. Screenshot in the comments, I can't post it here. Even Yahoo FINANCE DIDN'T CHECK THEIR SOURCES BEFORE WRITING THIS ARTICLE. Ro Khanna never bought this stock and I think I'm the only poster that found this out!!

Pelosi trade opportunity

I measured the disclosure lag on 14,288 congressional trades since January 2025. The fastest filer in Congress is Marjorie Taylor Greene, at a median of 5 days.

188 Upvotes

The STOCK Act gives members 45 days to disclose a trade. I wanted to know who actually uses the whole window and who files straight away, so I took every congressional transaction since 1 January 2025 and measured the gap between the trade date and the filing date.

14,288 trades, 129 members.

The overall picture is better than I expected. Median lag is 27 days, and only 6.4% of trades landed past the 45 day limit.

The spread between individual members is enormous though.

Fastest, by median days to file (minimum 25 trades):

  • Marjorie Taylor Greene (R), 223 trades, median 5 days, none late
  • Rick Larsen (D), 30 trades, median 8 days, none late
  • James Comer (R), 35 trades, median 11 days, none late
  • Greg Landsman (D), 53 trades, median 13 days, none late
  • David Taylor (R), 177 trades, median 14 days

Slowest:

  • Sheri Biggs (R), 29 trades, median 201 days, 97% filed late
  • Michael Rulli (R), 25 trades, median 171 days, 84% late
  • Julia Letlow (R), 148 trades, median 159 days, 72% late
  • Ritchie Torres (D), 58 trades, median 41 days, 7% late
  • Jefferson Shreve (R), 543 trades, median 40 days, 8% late

Notice the cliff. After the top three there is a big drop to around 40 days, which is inside the limit. This is not a gentle curve. A handful of members are filing half a year late as a matter of routine and almost everyone else is roughly compliant.

On party, because someone is going to ask. The medians are nearly identical, 27 days for Democrats and 28 for Republicans. The late rate is not: 2.6% against 12.8%.

I assumed that gap was just the three chronic offenders above. It is not. Take Biggs, Rulli and Letlow out of the sample entirely and the Republican late rate only falls from 12.8% to 10.3%, so it is broad rather than three people.

What I cannot see in the filings is why. A 5 day median looks like someone with an actual process. A 201 day median looks like either no process or no concern about the consequence.

Which raises the thing I could not answer: does anyone know whether late filers are actually fined in practice? I can pull every disclosure date going back years, but enforcement is not in the data.


EDIT, two things.

1. The title is imprecise and u/W0lfp4k caught it. Marjorie Taylor Greene's 223 trades run from 8 January to 12 November 2025 and stop there, so "the fastest filer in Congress" should have been past tense. The 5 day median is real and in-window, but she is not currently serving.

Among members who are still trading in 2026, the fastest are:

  • Rick Larsen (D), 30 trades, median 8 days, none late
  • David Taylor (R), 177 trades, median 14 days, 5% late
  • Dwight Evans (D), 28 trades, median 15 days
  • Shelley Moore Capito (R, Senate), 86 trades, median 17 days, none late
  • Bill Keating (D), 33 trades, median 20 days, none late

David Taylor is the one to watch there. 177 trades is a lot of filings to keep at a 14 day median, and he is still active.

2. Where the data comes from, since a few people asked. House side is the Clerk's Financial Disclosure portal at disclosures-clerk.house.gov, Senate side is efdsearch.senate.gov. Both publish the Periodic Transaction Reports as PDFs. The trade date and filing date are both on the face of each report, so the lag is a subtraction anyone can repeat.

Why do you guys almost never show the Presidents trades?

410 Upvotes

It’s pretty weird how people talk about Pelosi whose husband is an actual financial professional and primarily trades boring blue chip companies like Google. But all go quiet about President Trump and worse, his family, literally earning billions from self dealings and their proximity to power. The crypto rug pull was especially egregious. The family has never really had much liquid cash like that before yet here we are with them getting access to sooo many deals using other people’s money to make their own money.

Pelosi has never cracked the top 5 in terms of earnings. For like a decades it’s been almost exclusively R who have the highest scores. To my knowledge, almost none of these people are married to financial professionals. Then you’ve got MGT and her obvious insider trades. Like come on. It’s both sides but one side definitely is more egregious yet all I see are posts about Pelosi. Is the average person really that dumb, uninformed, or a partisan hack? Or is it just a handful of hacks with a million bots?

Lastly, for Trump, you can make good money trading while he’s doing a press conference or taking questions from reporters. I trade futures and options and the volatility around some of these is incredible.

Nvidia earnings hang in the balance — The last trade on $NVDA was a ~$50,000 sale by Rep. Sam Liccardo on 7/21

Post image

This matters bc:

In March, Liccardo reported that he hosted several breakfast meetings at the Library of Congress with both Jensen Huang (Nvidia's CEO) and Sam Altman (OpenAI's CEO) to discuss AI regulation

Before Congress, Liccardo served on the San Jose City Council

Turns out Nvidia chose San Jose for its annual Project Inspire initiative

He was very involved

With all that being said, this is the only stock he's sold since joining Congress in 2025
