Coldpine signal scoreA 0-1 composite from four weighted factors: disclosure speed, trade size, cluster activity (multiple members buying the same name), and the member’s track record. ≥ 0.65 is the high-conviction tier; ≥ 0.50 is moderate. Trades from trust-managed members are penalized (× 0.2 multiplier). It’s research, not a recommendation.

The record on $DFAI

Coldpine has parsed 8 disclosed trades in $DFAI by 1 member of Congress, drawn from 1 periodic transaction report dated Dec 23, 2025 through Dec 26, 2025. All of them came from House members, all filed by Republicans.

Of the 8 trades with a known filing lag, every one was reported inside the STOCK Act's 45-day window. The median lag was 23 days. The longest was 23 days: a $DFAI purchase by Michael T. McCaul dated Dec 23, 2025, disclosed Jan 15, 2026. How late filing is measured across all of Congress is in the late-filers study.

8 of the 8 trades that list an account holder (100%) were reported under a spouse, dependent child, or joint account rather than the member directly.

Across the 8 purchases Coldpine can price, $DFAI moved +2.98% on average between the trade date and the disclosure date, against +0.49% for the S&P 500 over the same windows. The stock was higher at disclosure than at the trade in 100% of those purchases. That is a record of what already happened, not a forecast. Method: what stocks do before Congress discloses.
