Did Tom Suozzi Beat the Stock Market?

Politician Stock Tracker

Did Tom Suozzi beat the stock market? On the stock purchases he has disclosed since August 2017, our answer is yes—at least in this window. Those buys returned about 400%. Buying the S&P 500 with the same money on the same days returned about 147% (about 2.7× the benchmark). That is a narrow lens on STOCK Act disclosures—not his entire wealth.

The short answer

Question What our data shows
Did disclosed buys beat the S&P 500? Yes — about 400% vs 147%
How many buys? 209 purchases we could price since August 2017
Did he pick great days to trade? Near a coin flip — about 49% vs a 50% luck baseline

Beating the market on what he bought and beating it on when he traded are different questions.

How we compare him to the market

Imagine this: every time Suozzi disclosed a stock purchase, you bought the same amount of the S&P 500 (through SPY, a fund that tracks the index) on that same day. Then you compare the two paths.

  • Suozzi's disclosed buys: about 400%
  • S&P 500 on the same dates: about 147%

His most-disclosed names include AAPL, NVDA, BA, SUP, WY. He ranks among the stronger performers on our politicians beating the market list—driven more by stock selection than trade-day timing.

Limits to keep in mind: disclosure forms report dollar ranges, not exact share counts. This measure covers disclosed stock purchases only—not every asset class. Full details live on his Tom Suozzi stock tracker page.

Timing is a separate question

Some people hear "beat the market" and mean "he knew the perfect day to buy." That is trade timing—and we measure it separately.

50% is roughly what random luck looks like. Suozzi's overall score sits around 49%:

Measure Score vs 50% luck
Overall 49% -1 points
Buys 47% -3 points
Sells 51% +1 points

With medium confidence and 565 scored trades across 143 stocks, treat this as essentially in line with chance.
