How Congress has done in CAT

Source: AIStockWire, scored from STOCK Act disclosures against daily price historyGenerated

Every purchase of CAT disclosed by a member of Congress in the last 5 years, scored over the 12 months after the trade date against SPY over the same window.

MeasureCATSPY
Median 12-month return after purchase+55.2%+23.1%
Median difference vs SPY+39.0%—
Purchases that beat SPY14 of 16 (88%)—
Members who bought8—

Most frequent buyers: Marjorie Taylor Greene (8), Markwayne Mullin (2), Gil Cisneros (1), Greg Stanton (1), Jared Moskowitz (1).

These are not returns anyone actually earned. Disclosures report a dollar bracket and no share count, so every purchase is counted once and weighted equally, and sales are not matched back to the buys that opened them. 1 of the 16 purchases are disclosed as a spouse's or dependent's rather than the member's own. Purchases from the last 12 months are excluded because their window has not closed yet.
