Nancy Pelosi Has Made Millions In Stock Market On Companies She Regulates, Report Shows

Writing on substack, Greenwald noted that nearly 75 percent of Pelosi and her husband Paul’s stock trading over the last two years has been in Big Tech.

Pelosi and her husband have mostly traded Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook and Google stock, per publicly-available information.

“That has happened as major legislation is pending before the House, controlled by the Committees Pelosi oversees, which could radically reshape the industry and laws that govern the very companies in which she and her husband most aggressively trade.”

Nancy Pelosi “has seen her wealth increase to nearly $115 million from $41 million in 2004,” and much of it comes from her husband’s wildly successful trading of stocks and options in companies she influences and about which she has non-public knowledge.https://t.co/c0SrP2nOEr

Reports claim that Pelosi often holds meetings with CEOs of tech giants the U.S. Congress is supposed to regulate, including Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple — and Apple accounted for 17 percent of the Pelosis’ trading volume.

Pelosi and her husband have also made millions trading Google stock. Google, campaign finance data shows, is one of the House speaker’s top donors.

“She works on bills that directly affect the future trajectory of Google. And they lavish her campaign coffers with cash, a key source of her entrenched power,” Greenwald pointed out in his piece.
