Marjorie Taylor Greene Insider Trading Claims: What Her Stock Trades Show
Politician Stock Tracker
Marjorie Taylor Greene insider trading claims follow her high-profile status and heavy disclosure volume. We do not allege illegal insider trading. Public STOCK Act data shows something nuanced: strong returns on disclosed buys versus matched S&P 500 purchases—but below-average timing scores on when she traded.
The short answer
| Lens | Greene's data | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Returns (performance card) | 72% on priced buys vs 44% matched SPY (1.6×) | Reported purchases beat the benchmark by a wide margin |
| Timing (timing card) | 46% overall vs 50% luck baseline | Slightly worse than random on trade dates |
Greene looks like a productive stock picker on disclosed buys in our window—not someone with a statistical calendar edge on individual trade days.
Returns: beating matched SPY
On 430 disclosed stock purchases we could price since January 2021 (amount-weighted), Greene's estimated buy strategy returned 72% versus 44% for matched S&P 500 purchases on the same dates and sizes.
Frequently traded names in our data include AMZN, AMD, AAPL, UPS, and NSRGY (Nestlé ADR). That mix points to which stocks she reported buying over a volatile period—not proof of non-public information.
This is disclosed purchases only—one of the largest priced-buy samples among House members in our dataset.
Timing: below chance, high confidence
The timing card tests whether each buy or sell beat random days on the same ticker:
| Metric | Score | vs 50% luck baseline |
|---|---|---|
| Overall timing | 46% | −4 points |
| Buy timing | 46% | −4 points |
| Sell timing | 46% | −4 points |
- 481 trades scored across 109 tickers (high confidence).
- All-time window in our model.
46% is modestly below what luck alone would predict. With this sample size, that is meaningful: Greene's trade dates do not look unusually well chosen—even though her buy returns beat matched SPY.
How to read both cards together
- Performance → “Did reported buys beat matched SPY?” Yes (~1.6×).
- Timing → “Did she pick great days on each stock?” Slightly worse than random overall.
That is the Pelosi pattern in reverse on timing: strong stock selection / hold period results on filings, no timing superpower. Headlines about insider trading usually imply perfect timing; these scores do not support that—while still showing benchmark-beating buy returns.
Neither metric proves or disproves wrongdoing. They show where public data points.
