Oversight Committee Lens

Every congressional committee that oversees a market sector, and the trades its own members made in that sector — the committee's conflict surface. It turns the per-member conflict flag into a systemic view: where oversight and ownership overlap, committee by committee.

⚑
A flagged trade is one in a sector the committee oversees — nothing more. Such trades are frequently legitimate: blind trusts, managed accounts, or unrelated to any committee action. This points to what deserves a closer look, never to wrongdoing. Want the test of whether the pattern beats chance? See the permutation test →

2460 flagged trades across 38 committees, most active oversight surface first.

"Est. volume" is the sum of each flagged trade's disclosed amount midpoint — disclosures are ranges, so treat it as an order-of-magnitude figure. A trade is attributed to every committee that oversees its sector, so totals across committees can overlap.

About this data. Sourced from official House Clerk and Senate eFD financial disclosures (Senate via a maintained community mirror — see project documentation). Transaction amounts are reported as ranges, not exact figures. Interest scores, consensus labels, and backtested performance are proprietary analytical calculations based on public data and are not investment advice. Backtested performance is a hypothetical simulation, not actual portfolio performance.
