Members and their immediate family members should only be able to trade index funds while in office... That said, I don't think any senator is selling their soul for a 10k investment. Seems like a non story.

Wow. $15,000. That's almost...like... a cazillion..isn't it.

Get real.

That makes good sense.

It is very difficult to see whether this was acted upon inside information or not. Feb 28, 2020 Gilead closed at 69.36. April 17, 2020 it is at a high of $83.99. A nice move in a short period of time. It has since moved down and sideways since that high.

I agree with Merge. There is nothing here to see. The question is whether she acted with inside information that somehow came through from Rand Paul. There was public information that came out from the company that it was going into phase 3 studies of remdisiver. She buys the stock two days later.

The fact that she lost money on the trade however is irrelevant., I have seen $10,000k investments reach 500k, 800k and a million. So I would not laugh off the size of the investment.

I'm up 4% on it. 😃

Should have been reported earlier though.

Paul's a crooked jerkoff like every other politician. Will you ever share a tweet on a democrat? Cmon man.

It is much ado about nothing. Two days before she bought stock, a public announcement was made by the company that they were beginning phase 3 trials. This is certainly news at that time that would make sense to buy a some stock in a company. I think Rand Paul is a tool. But, let's stop the nonsense about this being some sort of nefarious stock play.

Follow Pelosi because they haven't picked a bad stock yet. Investors taking notice.

Retail traders follow Nancy Pelosi's husband's stock moves to find winners

When in doubt, pick the same stocks that lawmakers' spouses are buying? That's what retail investors have been doing when it comes to trades made by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband, Paul Pelosi.

Almost as bad as Hunter Biden continuing 10% ownership in Chinese financial firm .Joe said he would unwind this but he didn’t give a date.Since Joe’s term 4 years at most,Hunter May wait it out unless his art sales become so lucrative he can unwind this investment MSM very interested in bashing Trump’s kids.I wonder why they are giving Biden a pass LOL

Bingo. This "my side are the good guys" BS is garbage. I missed ShoreGuy's comments on Cuomo.
