Insider Trading And Congress: How Lawmakers Get Rich From The Stock Market

CORRECTION (October 21, 2020): A previous version of this video mischaracterized the investment returns from one study. They should have been characterized as basis points.
In spring 2020, four U.S. senators faced accusations of using insider knowledge about the coronavirus crisis to sell off hundreds of thousands of dollars in stock. A couple of months later, the investigations into senators Kelly Loeffler (R-GA), Dianna Feinstein (D-CA), and James Inhofe (R-OK) were closed. Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC) stepped down as chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee amid the allegations.
Congressional insider trading has long been a hot button issue, and lawmakers continue to look for a way to put an end to the practice. In 2012, the STOCK (Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge) Act was passed following allegations of insider trading before the 2008 financial crisis. However, experts say the law didn’t go far enough. Watch the video to find out how prevalent insider trading is in Congress and what’s being done, and what’s not being done, to stop it.
UPDATE (December 1, 2020): With the U.S. presidential election over, attention is shifting to runoff elections for Georgia’s two senate seats slated for Jan. 5, 2021. Incumbent Senators Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue each face allegations of insider trading and possible violations of the STOCK act based on their investment decisions at the start of the coronavirus pandemic. Here’s how insider trading works when it comes to members of Congress, and what’s being done to curtail the practice.

    “In the House, there were at least 1,358 transactions, ranging up to a total of $60.5 million by 37 House representatives. Of those transactions, some members of Congress were strategically buying stocks in companies that might see a boost during the crisis, as well as selling stocks that seemed likely to tank,” said a report from the Campaign Legal Center. Why would you even be considering re-electing these people ? Dean Phillips of MN the fifth-wealthiest member of the House, was one of 37 U.S. representatives unloaded stocks in companies that were expected to be harmed by the pandemic and purchased stocks in companies that benefited from the public-health crisis on February 28th. On that same day, Phillips purchased stock in Abbott Laboratories which received four emergency use authorizations from the FDA for its COVID-19 tests. He also purchased stock in Baxter International, a multinational health care company that has experienced “significant revenue growth” because of the pandemic, a medical industry publication reported. A purchase for stock in ViacomCBS Inc. is also listed on the first-term congressman’s Periodic Transaction Report, a disclosure form all members of Congress must complete after selling or buying stocks in excess of $1,000. February 28 is again listed as the transaction date. Phillips sold up to $15,000 in preferred securities in AerCap Holdings, the self-described “world leader in aircraft leasing.” The congressman also dumped stocks in the department store Macy’s and a company called Simon Property Group, a “real estate investment trust engaged in the ownership of premier shopping, dining, entertainment and mixed-use destinations.” Both transactions occurred on February 28th. Overall, Phillips purchased up to $225,000 and sold up to $335,000 worth of stock on February 28. The pandemic was not declared a national emergency until March 13 and the federal government did not ban travel from European countries until March 11. The 2012 “Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act” prohibits lawmakers and their senior staff from making trades based on nonpublic information. The Department of Justice opened investigations in March into four U.S. senators who sold stocks after they were briefed on a possible economic downturn. The investigations into all but one of them have been closed. And this is where the virus gets politicized and winners and loosers were predetermined. Because of where the monetary gains are to be had and their influence to suppress as well as build up certain sectors for ones personal gain. These lawmakers are making decisions based on their pocket book, not for the good of the people. WAKE UP. Joe Biden is Compromised too by Foreign Influence. Vote out Dean Phillips, Kendall Qualls, who is running against Phillips in the 3rd Congressional District, said “the timeline speaks for itself.” This is a question of morals and ethics. Folks like Dean Phillips thought of themselves First at the cost of others. Why would they be interested in opening backup the country in certain sectors when they sold their Vested Interests. These are the folks we need to remove from office, they sold out for gains, power and influence. They are compromised. They have no Business chastising Trump for anything, these rats jumped the ship before alerting the public. PERIOD! DRAIN THE SWAMP!!

    Who would have thought that crypto assets would skyrocket in value in such a short period of time? As I learned from trading experts and my trainer, the cryptocurrency market is dynamic and tends to rise and fall, so learning to manage risk is one of the main ways to capitalize on this price volatility. In a bullish trend, it would be a shame if we couldn't make money in the cryptocurrency market by trading or holding. While trading is a more profitable and difficult earning process, trust me when you say the end is worth it. I used signals from Mr. Jace Gillan. This has greatly improved my trading experience, I easily place trades with signals and watch them trade with minimal losses.

    Who would have thought that crypto assets would skyrocket in value in such a short period of time? As I learned from trading experts and my trainer, the cryptocurrency market is dynamic and tends to rise and fall, so learning to manage risk is one of the main ways to capitalize on this price volatility. In a bullish trend, it would be a shame if we couldn't make money in the cryptocurrency market by trading or holding. While trading is a more profitable and difficult earning process, trust me when you say the end is worth it. I used signals from Mr. Jace Gillan. This has greatly improved my trading experience, I easily place trades with signals and watch them trade with minimal losses. Thanks to Mr. Jace's strategy and help, I was able to earn my first $ 43,000 on cryptocurrency. You can all turn to Mr. Jace for help.

    This is why it’s wild that we measure economic stability by the stock market. Or the unemployment rate- a rate only measured by how many unemployed people are actually eligible for UI, meaning they had a stable job to begin with. Maybe measure it by the percentage of income one spends on housing. Or how many hours one has to work to pay for that housing. Or whether someone working 60 hours a week can afford to break their arm, or if instead that would start an economic unraveling for that person that would leave them untreated, unhoused, and uninsured.

I'm not saying all of the top dogs in the government are involved. But I will gladly say most of them are. When the average professional trader cannot outperform the S&P over a 12 year period, how are these congress members making 3-4 times as much profit compared to the S&P? It's so blatant, but they don't even care. The people who would punish them for insider trading are in on it too. Nobody wants to squeal first.

    The consensus is still there. This is a bipartisan issue. Lock a few of them up for insider trading... Let them invest in broad ETFs & mutual funds but picking individual stocks while there deciding and making decision to directly correlate with their price getting rich in the meantime is ridiculous. We want them invested in the market we want them invested in the prosperity of America but in the whole market not individual companies.
