Why Congressional Transactions Matter
Congressional transactions should not be used primarily to make an investment decision, however they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
A congressional transaction occurs when a representative or senator buys or sells a single security. Anyone working in Congress must file a periodic transaction report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of notification of the transaction and within 45 days of the date of the transaction.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could indicate that they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons and does not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down.
In April 2012, former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The law prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling stocks. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to submit a monthly disclosure.
