Politician Trade Tracker

Flagged trades

Every disclosed trade scored 0–100 for conflict of interest, from signals available the day the filing appeared. Each score breaks down into the components that produced it.

What this score is. It measures conflict of interest and unusualness — how far a trade sits from routine. It is not a measure of insider trading, and a high score is not an accusation. Insider trading is a legal finding about what a person knew and what duty they breached; no public dataset contains either. A 90 here means several independent things about the trade are unusual and a journalist would want to ask about it.

The heaviest component is committee jurisdiction — whether the member sits on the committee with authority over that company’s sector. It is the only input that reflects official access. Congressional calendars are not published, so “traded after meeting the company” cannot be built by anyone from public data.

Weights are judgement, not fitted to returns. Fitting them to what made money would just rebuild an overfitted backtest. A trade can deserve scrutiny and still be a bad thing to copy: the ranking is measured on returns alone and takes no account of these flags.

Documented relationships

A member who traded a company they, or a relative, held a position at. These earn the score's relationship component; nothing else does.

From the LittleSis relationship database, which is community-maintained: an absent tie means none is recorded, not that none exists. A member owning a stock they traded is left out — that is their own filing coming back round — and so is any path through Congress itself or two steps out through a donor.
