Congress: Net selling, small-size trades
highCongress is net-selling in small increments. Directional signal is bearish, but the low magnitude suggests routine diversification rather than a conviction view.
What will probably happen
- Small-size congressional selling is a mild bearish tilt (may reflect routine rotation rather than a policy read).
- Bipartisan selling is notable: both parties reducing exposure suggests the thesis isn't tied to one party's legislative agenda.
What to do
- If you HOLD this stock
- Small-size net selling: mild caution warranted. Hold if your thesis is intact; tighten the stop.
- If you TRADE this stock (no options)
- Mild short bias or stand aside. Small-size selling doesn't justify aggressive short positions.
- If you trade OPTIONS
- Small bearish structure (put spread) or stay flat: small-size sell signal doesn't support expensive premium bets.
5 trades, bipartisan, distributed across 5 members.

Caveats
- STOCK Act disclosures are filed up to 45 days AFTER the trade: the catalyst that drove the congressional trade may already be partially or fully priced into the stock.
- Amount ranges are wide (e.g. '$1M–$5M'). The midpoint ($3M) may be far from actual size. Do not over-anchor on midpoint precision.
- 1 'Exchange' transaction(s) excluded from directional math (typically stock-for-stock swaps with no clear buy/sell signal).
