Whether this dinner invite will result in some sort of ethics probe remains to be seen. And while Trump is certainly pushing levers to increase the value of the coin, it is not insider trading. But there are more straightforward stories of insider trading. You've probably seen the famous examples in the news lately.

In the days before Trump rolled back the Liberation Day tariffs, Marjorie Taylor Greene bought between $10,000 and $150,000 worth of stock in companies like Adobe, Apple, and Nvidia, between $11,000 and $165,000 between $11,000 and $165,000 of stock in Amazon, FedEx, JPMorgan Chase, Lululemon, Nike, Qualcomm, and Tesla, and also sold between $50,000 and $100,000 worth of U.S. Treasury bills.

Last year, Nancy Pelosi's husband sold $150K worth of stock in Visa right before the Justice Department announced an antitrust lawsuit against the company, which saved the Pelosi's a whole lot of losses. In both cases, the politicians have denied any wrongdoing. Marjorie Taylor Greene said that these investments were initiated by her financial advisor.

And to be fair, a lot of financial advisors were telling people to buy the dip. And also, hi, I told you to buy the dip too. In the case of Nancy Pelosi's husband, she denies that she shared any sensitive financial information with her husband.

But no matter the excuses on either side of the aisle, it is clear just through the performance of the portfolios of Congress members alone that insider trading is happening. And I hate it. The stock market is supposed to reward research, patience, and strategy. But when people who write the laws can also profit off them before we even know what's coming, that's not a free market.

That is a rigged game. And the truth is, you don't need to break the law to beat the market. But when lawmakers are allowed to do both, the system needs a serious reboot. Again, I'm obviously not recommending that you try to DIY insider trading. That is illegal. But you can take cues from money moves in Washington.

To get insight into what members of Congress are buying and selling, you can use platforms like Capital Trades, which aggregates stock disclosures from lawmakers in near real time. And to get even more tactical, you could filter for trades made within 48 hours of closed committee meetings or classified briefings. That's a major tell.

You could also track unusually large options activities, especially zero-day trades on platforms like Unusual Whales or Cheddar Flow. That's how the SPY trade that I mentioned at the top of the show got flagged.
