Nancy Pelosi and several members of the US Congress have tech-heavy investment portfolios that have generated triple-digit returns over the past decade.
According to the alternative data platform Quiver Quantitative, replicating Nancy Pelosi's stock trades would have yielded returns exceeding 720% since May 2014.
Semi unrelated question (also only semi serious): is there a program or script that can follow a person's trades and make similar trades? Or is she one that, by the time the public knows, it's already too late to jump on the bandwagon?
There is a congressional rule that requires individual stock trades of certain amounts to be publicly disclosed within 45 days. However this is apparently not really enforced right now.
Some bipartisan congresspeople have proposed more restrictive rules and bans on stock trading, but those efforts haven't gained traction yet.
etoro is a broker that allows you to "copy trade" popular investors and portfolios, which mimc trades according to how much capital you have invested, though Nancy ain't gonna be on there
There's also ETFs such as ARK which are easy to get into, are managed by the likes of Cathie Wood and if they're doing a good job, only go up
Biggest regret in the last 15 years is not getting into it earlier tbh, if you have even a passing interest in trading, open a mock account (or a real one with some money you don't mind "losing") and just have a go - it's very simple nowadays. Gone are the days where you need to pay $10 to a broker to even make a trade
