For reporters: findings, charts, data
Five findings you can quote, the charts to run with them, and the files behind both. Every figure below is computed from the same data as the page it links to, and rebuilds nightly. These are disclosed trades, read from House and Senate filings. Nothing here is a finding of wrongdoing.
Key findings
- Congress's disclosed trades beat the S&P 500 by 12.0 points since January 2024, and Nancy Pelosi's household accounts for 85% of that edge (75–87%, depending on how the disclosed dollar ranges are read). Without it, Congress's lead shrinks to 2.3 points (1.7 to 5.1). Portfolios →
- Members of Congress disclosed 5,485 trades made in 2026 through October 22, 2026, and 16% of them (895) were filed after the 45-day deadline. 2026 trading report →
- Party explains only 1.2% of the variation in self-dealing scores across 539 scored members. Findings →
- The House passed the stock-trading ban (H.R. 7008) 232–198; in the Senate the cloture vote failed 53–47 with 60 needed. Ban vote →
- In the daily random-sample audit, 42.4% of 66 checked rows failed on first check (28 failures, before they were fixed or withdrawn), so some published rows have been wrong. Audits →
