Track what senatorsare trading.

The Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act of 2012 requires US senators and representatives to publicly disclose any stock trade over $1,000 within 45 days of the transaction. It was passed to prevent lawmakers from using non-public information gained through their official duties to profit in financial markets.

Capitol Gains syncs with the official Senate STOCK Act disclosure database every 30 minutes. New trades typically appear within minutes of being filed. The freshest disclosures surface at the top of the feed.

Multiple bipartisan bills to ban congressional stock trading are under active debate in 2026, including the Stop Insider Trading Act and the Restore Trust in Congress Act. Both would prohibit senators, their spouses, and dependents from owning individual stocks. As of March 2026, no ban has passed, though public support consistently exceeds 80% across party lines.

Senators file a Periodic Transaction Report (PTR) through the Senate's online disclosure system within 45 days of a trade. The report includes the senator's name, the asset (ticker), transaction type (buy or sell), and a dollar range — not an exact amount. Spouses and dependent children's trades must also be reported.

No. Capitol Gains is an informational tool that aggregates public government disclosures. Nothing here constitutes investment advice. Senate disclosures are historical records and can lag up to 45 days behind the actual trade date. Always do your own research.
