VTI Congressional Stock Trades

Coldpine has parsed 54 disclosed trades in $VTI by 1 member of Congress, drawn from 17 periodic transaction reports dated Mar 2, 2023 through Jun 30, 2026. All of them came from House members, all filed by Republicans.

Of the 54 trades with a known filing lag, 6 were reported more than 45 days after the trade date, outside the window the STOCK Act sets. The median lag was 26 days. The longest was 546 days: a $VTI purchase by Michael T. McCaul dated Mar 28, 2024, disclosed Sep 25, 2025. How late filing is measured across all of Congress is in the late-filers study.

46 of the 53 trades that list an account holder (87%) were reported under a spouse, dependent child, or joint account rather than the member directly.

Activity peaked in 2023 with 24 trades.

Across the 27 purchases Coldpine can price, $VTI moved +4.35% on average between the trade date and the disclosure date, against +4.32% for the S&P 500 over the same windows. The stock was higher at disclosure than at the trade in 70% of those purchases. That is a record of what already happened, not a forecast. Method: what stocks do before Congress discloses.
