Notional-weighted, lawmakers' disclosed COST buys are up 25.5% versus the latest close of $961.10. Each trade's own return — and realized round-trips on matched sells — is in the Return column.
Yes. Under the 2012 STOCK Act, members of Congress may buy and sell individual stocks but must publicly disclose each transaction within 45 days. Bargo surfaces those filings so you can see who traded COST and how it performed.
