How Congress has done in TSLA
Every purchase of TSLA 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.
| Measure | TSLA | SPY |
|---|---|---|
| Median 12-month return after purchase | +17.1% | +17.8% |
| Median difference vs SPY | -8.0% | — |
| Purchases that beat SPY | 24 of 60 (40%) | — |
| Members who bought | 12 | — |
Most frequent buyers: Josh Gottheimer (23), Marjorie Taylor Greene (10), Daniel Goldman (5), Rob Bresnahan (5), Lisa McClain (4).
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. 8 of the 60 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.
