Why It's Important: Members of Congress are allowed to buy and sell stocks as long as they properly disclose the transaction.
The process has drawn scrutiny from the public and retail investors as members of Congress could have inside information and time their trades accordingly. Committee assignments in particular, often draw red flags from investors.
Greene serves on the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability and the House Committee on Homeland Security with several subcommittee appointments. The congresswoman's past trade in technology and cybersecurity stocks has drawn attention with her role within Homeland Security.
Greene&#8217;s past trades of Palantir Technologies and a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44255172/marjorie-taylor-greene-buys-more-bitcoin-etf-shares-ahead-of-trumps-strategic-reserve-executive-order"> Bitcoin ETF </a>have drawn criticism along with the timing of her trades, as she is a close ally to President Donald Trump. 
When asked previously about buying stocks earlier this year that soared days later after Trump announced a pause to tariffs, Greene<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip"> brushed aside the criticism.</a>
&#8220;I think that criticism is laughable. President Trump has been talking about tariffs for decades,&#8221; Greene told reporters when asked about the trades at a recent town hall event in Georgia in a clip <a href="https://x.com/unusual_whales/status/1912456434081480777" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">shared </a>by Unusual Whales. The congresswoman used the opportunity to boast about her stock performance, which ranked her as one of the top trading members of Congress in 2024.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t place my buys and sells," Greene said, citing an agreement she has with her portfolio manager, who handles all the buying and selling of stocks. &#8220;He did a great job. Guess what he did. He bought the dip. And that&#8217;s what anybody that has financial sense does."
Greene also said her portfolio manager did not have inside information, everything was public and a potential tariff pause wasn&#8217;t a secret.
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) has reintroduced legislation that would ban members of Congress from trading or holding individual stocks.
The bill is known as the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments Act, or PELOSI Act based on the first letter of each of the main words. The name takes aim at the congresswoman and former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).  
&#8220;Members of Congress should be fighting for the people they were elected to serve — not day trading at the expense of their constituents,&#8221; Hawley&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hawley.senate.gov/hawley-reintroduces-pelosi-act-to-ban-congress-from-trading-stocks/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a>. &#8220;Americans have seen politician after politician turn a profit using information not available to the general public.&#8221;
Hawley said the bill will help &#8220;restore Americans&#8217; trust in our nation&#8217;s legislative body.&#8221;
Hawley&#8217;s bill is being reintroduced as President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;<a href="https://time.com/7280114/donald-trump-2025-interview-transcript/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said&nbsp;</a>he would support such a ban.
&#8220;Well, I watched Nancy Pelosi get rich through insider information, and I would be okay with it. If they send it to me, I would do it,&#8221; Trump told TIME.
Trump said he would sign the ban if the bill passes Congress.
While Pelosi makes headlines for her trades, it&#8217;s important to remember that<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;it is both Republican</a>&nbsp;and Democratic members of Congress who are profiting from buying and selling stocks and options while in office, with some trades coming with questionable timing or having a connection to committees they serve on.
In 2024, a list of the top-performing traders in Congress included six Republicans and four Democrats.

<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

Adobe Unusual Options Activity For May 01

It is messy.
One tweet sends stock prices plummeting lower.
Another revives the hopes and dreams of beleaguered traders, and they go into a buying frenzy.
Scott Bessent gives a closed-door talk that is on the wires with a word-for-word replay almost instantly and the market rebounds.
Peter Navarro escapes from the broom closet Elon Musk shoved him into and prices collapse once again.
Most market participants are not big fans of messy markets.
Corporate executives hate the lack of clarity and cloud of uncertainty that make it impossible to fit the future into a spreadsheet.
Trading algorithms develop hiccups.
The massive increase in career risk freezes mutual funds and endowment managers in place.
Holding cash and sprinting down the halls at 50 Hudson Yards screaming &#8220;Prudent Man, Prudent Man&#8221; just might preserve that cushy job and allow the mortgage and private Pre-K tuition bills to be paid again next month.
Buying shares of a beaten-up tech stock just before an announcement of new tariffs on semiconductors could lead to a third-floor walkup on Clinton Street and Wallace Elementary School.
Mediocre performance for inaction is a much better deal than training for the Metro North to the Midtown ferry.
There is, however, one group that thrives in messy.
Activist investors, those now-gentlemanly investors that were known in days of old as corporate raiders and takeover artists, love messy.
Messy creates distortion and distortion creates opportunity.
Activists have been embracing the mess so far in 2025.
The Shareholders Advisory Group at Barclays just released its first quarter look at activism and it&#8217;s pretty clear that activists like what they see.
Despite economic storm clouds gathering on the horizon and unpredictable market volatility, the activists aren&#8217;t just staying in the game. They are doubling down.
Barclays&#8217; data shows that global campaign activity has roared ahead with 70 campaigns in Q1, jumping 17% year-over-year. More tellingly, that&#8217;s running 25% above the four-year quarterly average.
Particularly noteworthy for value-oriented investors: companies under $5 billion market cap are being targeted at an accelerated rate, representing 66% of campaigns in Q1. This tells me that activists are finding more inefficiencies and potential value in the small and mid-cap space.
Of course this is exactly where traditional value investors should be looking anyway.
An interesting small activist holding is in the portfolio of ValueAct Holdings out of San Francisco.
Over the past 25 years the firm has built up a strong track record of wins and winning board seats at target companies.
The firm has had big winners with tech companies like Microsoft (Ticker: MSFT), Adobe (Ticker: ADBE) and Salesforce (Ticker: CRM).
The firm currently owns over 4 million shares, or a little over 12% of Insight Enterprises (Ticker: NSIT). It currently has one board seat at the Information Technology company.
Insight Enterprises is a Fortune 500 global technology company founded in 1988 by brothers Tim and Eric Crown as Hard Drives International, initially selling computer storage products. The company later changed its name to Insight Enterprises in 1991, went public in 1995, and has since evolved into a comprehensive IT solutions provider with offices in 19 countries.
The business should see strong tailwinds from major trends including big data, AI, cloud computing and cyber security.
The stock has had a strong run during the time ValueAct has been involved but has had a pretty sharp decline since the start of Tariff Wars 2025 edition.
Many of Insight&#8217;s customers are governments and government agencies or in industries including healthcare and education that are seeing negative impacts from the administration policies.
The stock is currently 20% of ValueAct&#8217;s portfolio and at some point it may make sense for them to gently suggest that Insight look for a potential offer from a larger IT firm.
This could unlock some of the value of the company and give the activist an exit strategy.
Barington Capital Group is a small but scrappy activist investment firm headquartered in New York City. Founded in 2000 by James A. Mitarotonda, a former investment banker turned shareholder gadfly, Barington has built a reputation as a focused value-oriented investor that targets underperforming small- and mid-cap companies, usually with a consumer or industrial tilt.
Barington is not in the business of financial engineering or short-term flips. They&#8217;re more like value investors with an activist toolkit that is focused on long-term turnaround stories where unlocking operational or strategic inefficiencies can create a meaningful rerating.
Its current target is Matthews International (Ticker: MATW).
Matthews has a puzzling combination of businesses that include factory automation and tombstones, caskets, and cremation equipment.
It sold its packaging and branding business for $50 million earlier this year as the proxy fight heated up.
Barington lost the first round as the company was able to hold off the activist&#8217;s attempt to gain three board seats.
The company is potentially worth at least twice the current stock price, so I doubt Barington slinks away in defeat.
Like Arnold and MacArthur, they will be back.
There will be more volatility and general messiness.
It will create opportunity for activists and those who track the activists.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) disclosed her significant stock purchases made just before and on the day of President Donald Trump&#8216;s announcement to pause global tariffs. This announcement had a substantial impact on the stock market.
What Happened: Based on the information disclosed to the House, Greene bought stocks valued between $21,000 and $315,000 on April 8 and 9. On April 8, she also sold Treasury bills worth between $50,000 and $100,000, according to the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/gov-trades/members/marjorie-taylor-greene" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;Benzinga Government Trades tracker.</a>
Greene&#8217;s stock purchases included shares in several companies, such as&nbsp;Apple Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), which has since appreciated by approximately 5%.

These transactions occurred&nbsp;as government bond yields were&nbsp;on the rise amidst the tariff turmoil.

Why It Matters: Greene&#8217;s stock trades have raised eyebrows, especially considering the timing of her purchases. The trades coincided with former President Trump&#8217;s tariff pause announcement, which led to a significant surge in the stock market. 
This has led to calls for an investigation into potential insider trading related to President Trump&#8217;s market communications before the tariff pause announcement. Key Democratic lawmakers, including Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), have expressed concerns about possible corruption.
