STOCK Act Trades

What this is not: a profit. The STOCK Act discloses an amount band, never a share count. A member who bought in the $50,001–$100,000 band and sold in the $15,001–$50,000 band might have trimmed the position or might have watched it fall — nothing in the filing tells the two apart. So every figure here is the movement in the share price between two disclosed dates, next to what the S&P 500 did over exactly those days.

Only completed positions appear — one purchase, one sale, in that order. A stock bought twice, or sold before any purchase we hold, has no single cost basis we can honestly describe and is left out. Prices are adjusted closes, which account for splits and dividends; that is what makes the comparison with the index like for like, and it is why a price shown here can differ from what the stock traded at on the day.

A flagged trade means this member traded a company in a sector one of their committees oversees. It is drawn from public committee rosters and public disclosures, and it is not an allegation of wrongdoing — trading in an overseen sector is legal, and members do not necessarily direct their own trades.
