Funny how he puts Pelosi first in the list despite her not being first alphabetically or by returns.
she is certainly the one with the most notoriety. off the top of your head, which party do the rest belong to? which state do they represent?
While it's not really great that any representative basically gets to do insider trading, it's frustrating that Pelosi gets most of the heat. It feels very targeted and people complaining about the issue often only complain about her and not the many many other representatives that do the same thing.
They shouldn't be trading options, which is part of the heat. Normal people don't do that.
But also, Pelosi's trades (or her husband's trades) have mostly been bullish on big name tech companies based around the Bay Area. It just so happens that sector has utterly dominated stock returns in the last few decades, and not even in a surprising way. So that's not really insider information, but rather adopting an unusually high risk profile for gambling on already successful tech stocks.
This graphic literally includes three more people aside from Pelosi. it is doing the opposite of what you're frustrated about. it would be more bizarre if it didn't list the congressperson who is most notable for profiting from insider trading.
It would not be bizarre to see them in alphabetical order. This is such a weird take... But I get your point, and I agree partially with it.
This said, the democratic party has failed all of us here. They are not worse than the Republicans, but they refused to act. https://www.google.com/amp/s/thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/3669259-lawmakers-furious-at-pelosi-after-stock-trading-ban-stalls/amp/
These shitheads are going to hand Trump a second presidency at this rate. Fuck them all.
What ain't a country I've ever heard of
They speak English in what?
Shes is actually perfect for that. She outperformed in 2023, but underperformed in 2022. You would expect a Gaussian distribution around the mean. And if you include every congress member, you get a Gaussian distribution, shifted slightly to the left.
