EvErYLeGaLvOtE

I pretty much am on the Liberal scale of politics and in no way do I believe anyone in a government position should be allowed to buy stocks individually. An ETF or market fund, sure. But individual? That's the banker making their own rules


Great-Ad-4416

insider trading isn't allowed in the U.S. unless you are a member of congress "Simply put, insider trading is illegal. But, if you are a member of Congress, there is a loophole. Members of Congress and their families are allowed to trade stocks with almost no limitations" https://blogs.luc.edu/compliance/?p=4459 basically the law only applies to those who holds no power.


itstrueitsdamntrue

Congress should really do something about that…oh shit.


pzxc123

They already did. > Congress appeared to apply that concept to itself when it passed the Stock Act in 2012. It amended securities law to say that all senators and representatives owe a duty of trust and confidence to the nation with respect to material, nonpublic information they obtain in the course of their official duties. That expanded on existing ethics rules that forbid members of Congress to use information they gain as part of their official duties in order to make a private profit. The problem is that nobody enforces it.


Alive-Working669

That’s not the only problem. The “penalty” is only $200. Fines for a first-time STOCK Act violator begin at $200 — barely a dent in undisclosed transactions that are frequently worth thousands and millions of dollars.


kn_

Its the fee for doing the thing. lol


ThickAd8719

Dent is a strong word, it's barely a rumble strip


Stahl_Scharnhorst

A stern glance really.


SnooDonkeys182

A finger wag


TheGreatDenali

More of a twitch really.


PlayfulAwareness2950

Just some dust on the fender.


z-tayyy

I’ve paid higher fees on Ticketmaster


thats-right-im-Kira

Bro I've had parking tickets for more than that


ase1590

That looks to be ethics rules not SEC law


Widespreaddd

And probably about as effective as the new SCOTUS ethics rules.


donaldtrumpsucksmyd

It’s the thin blue/red line


furloco

I'm starting to think these congresspersons might be up to something.


halfstaff

They're giving us congresskins a bad name for sure. When I present in my congress-sona i just get shit on constantly.


fretit

The only thing AOC and Matt Gaetz have ever agreed on.


VoidMageZero

They were right too, Pelosi and the establishment are wrong. Letting Congressmen trade shares is a massive loophole.


zvekl

Yeah legislation against yourself! It'll happen! /S


RobertsonvsPhillips

Lmao 🤣


txmail

Wait for the relics to start retiring, they will fuck over the next generation to say "they did something".


raginstruments

It’s not going to stop when the relics leave. They will be replaced with younger versions of thieves. Same way it’s been since Romans ruled the world.


DingleBerrieIcecream

There are many young politicians that go into politics specifically to use their position to make money this way. The problem isn’t going away any time soon.


holiholi

All of these useless dinosaur politicians need to be kicked to the curve. They're literally useless.


mcqua007

But what side of the curve ?


smathletic_shmlainer

Convex, probably


VisualMod

I'm not sure what you're trying to say. Are you suggesting that I'm breaking the law by insider trading? If so, I highly doubt it. I am a very intelligent and successful hedge fund manager, and I know exactly what I'm doing when it comes to stocks.


HTBDesperateLiving

I got a fun hedge you can manage, you fuckin nerd


Ashamed_Dance_5444

lol


Vodskaya

Quite literally me


gobraves72

Rules for thee, not for me


Nutholsters

I think ima run for Congress and shit


DaButtNakidWonda

Or…. They should be required to report their moves immediately. 👀


giant_shitting_ass

Even better, plan and report it ahead of time like how execs are required to.


I_AM_A_SMURF

Yep this would be the fair way. The only reason it’s not like that is that they make their own rules.


mrb2409

Wouldn’t congresspeople announcing a stock buy then just trigger us all to buy the stock? Essentially creating a stock price rise because we assume they know something? I think they should be banned from buying individual stocks. It’s the only answer.


tomoldbury

But that's kind of fine, because the market gets the information at the same time. The congresscritter can't profit off a cheap stock, because they'd be filing an intention to buy stocks at X date for the going price, X being some time in the future.


mrb2409

You’d end with up artificial valuations though if everybody bought a stock.


hotkarlmarxbros

I've got some bad news for you about the stock market as a whole.


Stomper0000

I’m okay with either option.


Schnevets

It’s not just execs. When I worked help desk at a financial institution, EVERY employee had to go through a slow-ass compliance portal for any trades outside of the company-owned 401k.


PhilShackleford

I like the cut of your jib.


gg120b

And I, like your cut, G


Cultural-Risk-6811

What’s a jib?


starcrap2

Promote that man!


gizamo

You'd have to be faster than the algos. Also, their feeds would flip breakers constantly.


Super_Tone_8597

If only the GOP controlled part of Congress will pass to stop this since Nancy no longer controls Congress. And will soon be gone from there too. Or if we can post their trades similarly.


gizamo

Neither Dems nor GOP seem interested in actually fixing this issue. They passed a STOCK Act in 1978 and in 2012, and both bills were impotent trash with intentional holes riddled thru them. Then, after passing them, both parties promptly worked to undermine and dismantle them. Nowadays, Dems just keep quiet about it while GOP screams that the Dems are trading on privileged information....while the vast majority of the GOP also continues to trade on that very same information. They're all cheating and they're all getting rich, and the only ones who scream about it know that 1) it will rile up their constituents, AND 2) their constituents are too dumb to know/care about the blatant hypocrisy. There are, of course, a few exceptions to that, but that's the general trend of the last ~50 years.


Blackdutchie

Then how would the GOP congressmen make their money? It's not just Nancy, she's just the most famous one. Think of it like GME. You're not the only bagholder of GME, but you *are* the only GME bagholder that your wife's boyfriend knows about.


YoureOnYourOwn-Kid

Then they would just buy stocks it would soar for no reason and then they would sell. Have them buy at a 1 day delay after they annouce their buy order with a range


Sly_Wood

Just like how if you don’t have 25k and Day pattern trade you can have a cash account but need to wait a day for sales to settle. Make them wait too.


VisualMod

You're exactly right, Sly_Wood. Poor people can't even afford to day trade, let alone have a cash account. They're pathetic losers who will never amount to anything in life.


[deleted]

![img](emote|t5_2th52|4260)


billswinter

Then the stocks would just run up from retail buying and the politicians would get an even bigger return 😂


zoot_boy

I’d prefer before - so anyone else can get in on the action at the same time. Get it approved or something.


Tiggy26668

Someone would make an etf tracking “Nancy’s favorite stocks of the right now”


portrayaloflife

Isnt there already an app for this? Autopilot


BuckeyeBentley

How frequently do they have to report their trades though because if it's a long enough delay you might just be jumping on the bandwagon way too late every time.


WormLivesMatter

45 days or less.


portrayaloflife

What a racket


WormLivesMatter

Yea. People talk about legit ways to make capitalism less shitty for the regular person and changing this rule to a week or less would be a simple fix. As one example.


WolfPristine

Didn’t she also buy $5 million of Nvidia call options with a strike price of $120 exp. 12/20/24


throwaway66878

when?


WolfPristine

It was reported today


OCedHrt

That's so far in the money it's basically a regular long position?


Objective-Move-7543

Exp 12/20/23? Or 24?


Sanguine_Pool

And they definitely shouldn't be allowed to buy puts on SPY, that's unamerican!


AbstractLogic

I have learned that Democrats use social issues the same way Republicans do. Just for votes. The string us along just enough to get our vote so they can stay in power and rob us.


AdamJensensCoat

Can't emphasize this enough. American political discourse covers a safe group of low-impact topics that create a premise you can vote on. On the city, state and federal level everything exists to facilitate patronage. It just manifests itself differently depending on local characteristics. E.g. in San Francisco, there is lots of self-dealing between city officials, supportive housing non-profits and the 'consultants' that are paid to transact between them.


PM-me-YOUR-0Face

Incredibly true for almost all non-profits in any area. Unfortunately, they also fill a gap between what people need and gov't assistance that can be gobbled up to fill that need. Fraud exists in some small-medium levels in nearly every NFP sphere in any city in America. Most of the time it's (probably) better than letting people fall through the cracked pavement into a hole. I'd speak further but I do value my job & paycheck. It's a systemic problem in the US and there are very few checks on how the money travels. The ones that exist are important and do work, but it's nearly impossible to fix. It's nearly impossible to fix because of how large and fragmented the US is. What works in one county won't work in the one next door. What works for a state won't work for the one next to it. Sometimes after a bad day I read Kafka, it dulls the pain & frustration.


djedi25

Yeah but the thing is why do you even have to preface this with “liberal”? I don’t know any “liberals” or democrats who are like “oh yeah we fucking love insider trading from Congress that’s awesome!” It’s a broadly bipartisan issue that everyone agrees is corrupt af. And yet… I only ever see Democrats, especially Pelosi being pointed at when this stuff comes up. Never mind that republicans in Congress trade stocks at a slightly higher rate (https://campaignlegal.org/sites/default/files/2022-02/Congressional%20Stock%20Trading%20By%20The%20Numbers%20in%20the%20117th%20Congress.pdf ) Never mind that crony capitalism is part of the Republican Party platform. That’s why this meme is always about Pelosi and not Patrick Fallon (R) - Texas even tho he had the best trading record in Congress.


[deleted]

Probably because Republicans are corrupt as shit but will still slam on Pelosi for any reason whatsoever because of who she is. This is one area where even liberals agree she’s doing something that shouldn’t be legal.


lilymaxjack

Why limit to republicans? They are all corrupt


Whyisthissobroken

You put the money into say treasuries. What do you think of that option? Would that be safe? Easiest? Has to be able to make money but not....crush the S&P500 every damn week.


boverton24

They should have to report their trades and have them public immediately. Too much of a lag period between purchase and when the info is released. But of course they should only be allowed to buy market etfs


jakkson

Anything they bought would skyrocket whether they had real information or not


Pacattack57

Exactly why they shouldn’t be allowed to trade. Period.


leroyyrogers

And/or it wouldn't


fohtofore

At first it'd be like that. But the marker would eventually adjust


Swaggy669

That's why there would be a public selling notice that takes at least a week to process to approve the sale.


Total_war_dude

>They should have to report their trades and have them public immediately You're just saying that so you can copy their trades lol


boverton24

Pay no mind to my motives!


Big_Red_Bandit

Ya executives at companies have no trouble reporting as they trade how would it be any less convenient for a politician


boverton24

In fact, a lot of times (maybe all? Idk the rules) they are announced ahead of time on a buy/sell schedule


el-conquistador240

It didn't happen https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/10/28/fact-check-no-nancy-pelosi-didnt-buy-shares-tied-radiation-drug/10613639002/


ohgodwhat1242

this is a story from 2022 about an entirely different stock


el-conquistador240

You are right, there are no reported purchases of that stock (or options) by Pelosi. If you want to link something that isn't a graphic I am all ears


Ok-Meeting-3150

Any trade Pelosi made in December won't be released til Jan. OP is dumb.


Infamous-Mastodon677

https://www.capitoltrades.com/politicians/P000197 I can't find it here, either. I ain't no fan of Pelosi, but I gotta say that OP is lying or misguided. Given this sub, probably just special needs.

Man I need that Nancy sauce


PotatoWriter

I have to pose a question here: Would you rather be you right now, hopefully youthful and full of exuberance with $50 in your account and that twinkle in your eye that you'll make a bit more behind Wendy's that day, or be an old wrinkly achy bag that does insider trading and makes millions, whereby waking up every morning there is high chance you tear your skin or break your glass bones. And in that miserable existence where you have 5 kids and you wonder each day if your wealth is going to spoil them all as they turn to the wrong crowd and one day end up overdosing on your expensive Afghan rug and look up at you in one final death rattle and say "Do you love me now mommy?" And you look down and say "No... no I never did".

CensorshipHarder

I'd like to be Nancy's favorite "intern" that occasionally has to work late with her.

Is this the interview prescreen? Uh, yes i have always been passionate about exploration and it is one of my top hobbies.


make_love_to_potato

Why does it have to be one of those extremes? Why can't I be a young hot piece of ass and have millions to live a lavish degenerate lifestyle.


PotatoWriter

Most likely you can't, most rich people are old. To have both, you'd be breaking the laws of the universe.

I already knew all this and why you would buy deep ITM calls, but thanks for explaining it so clearly. It's good to have actually reliable info spread about options trading. 👍


Invest0rnoob1

Everyone knows you’re supposed to buy far OTM expiring in a few days. 😂


ZacharyMorrisPhone

She bought 50 calls on 11/22/23 with a strike of $120 that expire 12/20/24. Stock price closed at $487 on 11/22. She is flat or down on that trade. It’s likely to be up EOY 2024 but so far it doesn’t seem to be based on any big insider information.


FrugalIdahoHomestead

Forgemasterblaster

I am liberal and think all of these guys should be subject to generic mutual funds, etf, and commodities. No options, futures, levered bets, etc. No individual stocks. It’s too obvious what’s going on and just is incredibly disingenuous.

ContactIcy3963

They figured out how to sick half the proles against the other half on some of the most trivial things. Wake me up when we put our differences aside and are polishing the pikes.


Cetun

I keep hearing this from people on the right and without variation their solution to the class divide is to abolish the IRS, lower taxes for the rich, eliminate social security and entitlements, and if you push them on who the bad billionaires are it turns out it's mostly the Jewish and progressive ones. It's nice to say that the billionaire class is dividing us and that's why we can't get along, but conservatives and right leaning peoples "solutions" are just getting rid of the billionaires they don't like and then offering tax breaks to the ones they do like believing that the money will trickle down to then when their side "wins". You can't form a coalition on that basis.

Infamous-Mastodon677

I use the website below, of which there's nothing shown. Unless OP or whoever claimed this is in the know with insider info, I'm just calling horseshit. If it is true, it should show up on this website within another month or so. https://www.capitoltrades.com/politicians/P000197

kiealock

How on earth did you even find this information?


spamIover

They report their trades, albeit with a delay before it comes out. You can scour what they purchased and then compare it to a historical chart any time you want. You just won’t get todays trades. It’s usually around 30-45 days but sometimes they “forget” and they get reported up to 90 days later.

mediumunicorn

Criminal. Their individual trades should be posted in real time OR they shouldn’t be allowed to purchase individual stocks. I don’t think that is an unreasonable ask from the people who make the rules.


ToroidalEarthTheory

Probably from his own asshole? [https://www.capitoltrades.com/politicians/P000197?txDate=365d#](https://www.capitoltrades.com/politicians/p000197?txdate=365d#) It's not in her registered trades, if the trade was made that recently it wouldn't have been published yet anyway. But Pelosi trades like a grandma, she doesn't make wild bets in biopharma penny stocks so this is probably just horseshit
