Dear Fellow Investor,
Want to invest like the most well-connected people in the country? You might want to start watching Congress.
Over the years, members of the U.S. Congress — both Democrats and Republicans — have made headlines not just for their legislative work, but also for their trading activity. In some cases, these elected officials and their spouses have executed trades that, coincidentally or not, precede major stock moves, regulatory changes, or massive news events.
It’s no surprise then that a growing number of retail and institutional investors are paying close attention to congressional stock trades. And now, you can tap into these trades more easily than ever.
Let’s explore the two primary ways investors can follow — and even profit from — the stock picks of elected officials.
Option 1: Track Individual Congressional Trades Manually
The first approach is straightforward, but it requires a bit of legwork. Thanks to the STOCK Act, passed in 2012, members of Congress are legally required to disclose stock trades within 30 to 45 days of making them.
That means investors like you can access these disclosures, identify trades by specific members, and replicate them — assuming you’re willing to dig through government filings and data portals.
For example, Nancy Pelosi, one of the most well-known names in this space, has frequently attracted attention for the timing and size of her household’s stock trades.
In January 2024, disclosures showed Pelosi’s spouse took a position in Tempus AI (SYM: TEM) by buying 50 of the January 2026 $20 call options — a bet on the company's long-term growth potential. That same month, the Pelosi household also disclosed the purchase of between $250,000 and $500,000 in Amazon (SYM: AMZN) stock.
While these trades weren’t made public until weeks later, they still provided insight into the sectors and stocks certain politicians are favoring — and that alone can influence how retail traders approach the market.
Important Note:
The STOCK Act requires that congressional members report any purchase, sale, or exchange exceeding $1,000 in value within 30-45 days. The law was designed to increase transparency and reduce the appearance of insider advantage — though critics argue the delay still leaves room for information arbitrage.

Option 2: Invest Through Congressional Stock ETFs
If sifting through public disclosures isn’t your thing, there’s now an easier — and more passive — way to follow Congress’s trades: exchange-traded funds (ETFs) built specifically to track congressional buying activity.
Two of the most prominent examples are the Unusual Whales Subversive Democratic ETF (SYM: NANC) and the Unusual Whales Subversive Republican ETF (SYM: GOP). Both funds were created in partnership with Unusual Whales, a data and analytics platform known for tracking insider and unusual trading activity.
Let’s take a closer look at each ETF.
ETF: Unusual Whales Subversive Democratic ETF (SYM: NANC)This ETF focuses on the trading activity of Democratic members of Congress and their spouses. It has an expense ratio of 0.74% and seeks to mirror the investment exposure of Democrats based on their disclosed stock trades.
According to the NANC ETF Fact Sheet:
“We have partnered with Unusual Whales to develop an ETF that will allow investors access to the near-real-time trading disclosures of members of Congress in both parties. NANC focuses on the Democratic Party.”
NANC continuously updates its holdings based on newly disclosed congressional trades. That makes it one of the few funds attempting to align its strategy with real-time political sentiment and positioning.
Though not without risk, this strategy offers an innovative way to potentially benefit from the same trades insiders are making — with the transparency and structure of an ETF.
Mode Mobile
This tech company grew 32,481%...
No, it's not Nvidia… It's Mode Mobile, 2023’s fastest-growing software company according to Deloitte. And the opportunity to invest in their pre-IPO offering at $0.26/share is closing soon.
Their disruptive tech, the EarnPhone and EarnOS, have helped users earn and save an eye-popping $325M+, driving $75M+ in revenue and a massive 45M+ consumer base. And having secured partnerships with Walmart and Best Buy, Mode’s not stopping there…
They’ve just been granted the stock ticker $MODE by the Nasdaq and the time to invest at their current share price is running out.
🚨Time Sensitive: invest in Mode before the May 1st share price change.
ETF: Unusual Whales Subversive Republican ETF (SYM: GOP)
This ETF operates similarly to NANC but tracks Republican congressional trading activity. With the same 0.74% expense ratio, it is designed to reflect the equity investments being made by Republican lawmakers and their spouses.
As of recent filings, top GOP ETF holdings include:
What’s interesting about GOP’s holdings is that they reflect a mix of traditional energy, tech, and financials — sectors that are often favored by Republican lawmakers who tend to lean pro-business and pro-energy.
Just like NANC, GOP dynamically adjusts its portfolio based on newly filed congressional trade disclosures.
Why This Matters for Retail Investors
For years, institutional investors have had tools, algorithms, and resources that gave them an edge. But the rise of transparency-focused ETFs like NANC and GOP gives everyday investors a rare opportunity to mirror the behavior of political insiders who may have access to deeper insights into pending legislation, regulatory changes, and industry shifts.
While these ETFs don’t guarantee outperformance — and tracking politicians’ trades certainly isn’t foolproof — they offer a unique lens through which to view market sentiment and potential opportunity.
Think of them as thematic ETFs tied not to ESG or innovation — but to political capital and insider insight.
