Lamar Smith

Lamar Smith has disclosed 609 stock transactions — 303 buys, 298 sells and 8 other (exchanges/other), each ranked by how much scrutiny it deserves and linked to its original House filing. A transparency record.

Track record Congressional Trading Performance

Two figures per horizon, both hypothetical and not investment advice: Member's own — what the trade returned if you'd bought when Smith did (not public yet, so not replicable); and If you'd followed — buying only after the disclosure went public, which is what a follower could actually do. The gap between them is the cost of the disclosure lag.

We don't have price history covering Smith's trades — they may predate our price data or be on tickers we don't track — so hypothetical returns can't be computed here. The disclosures themselves are all listed below.

Traded the same stocks, same time Co-Investors in Congress

Other members who traded the same tickers within 30 days of Smith's trades in them. A high overlap can reflect shared information, shared advisors, or simply popular stocks — it is not evidence of coordination.

Corporate insiders · SEC Form 4 Overlap with Insiders

On the trades where corporate insiders were also active, how often did Lamar Smith move the same way as the company's own officers and directors (within 60 days)? Co-occurrence only — context from public Form 4 filings, never proof of coordination, and tested honestly for whether it means anything.

Lamar Smith's convergence rate of 0% is lower than the 20% average across all members. "Checkable" = trades on tickers where insiders were also trading, so convergence could even be measured.

Descriptive only — insider convergence is context from public SEC Form 4 filings, never proof of coordination or wrongdoing, and not investment advice.
