I've often wondered about starting a fund where I simply follow any trades certain congress members are making. That's not insider info at that point, right?

I've often wondered about starting a fund where I simply follow any trades certain congress members are making. That's not insider info at that point, right? I guess this strategy can't work for some reason (or others would be exploiting it) but what is the reason? Time delay?

- Raidion 9y agoI don't think the trades of congress are public record. You simply aren't able to get that information. And if you are able to get that info, and the rest of the public doesn't have it, then that's inside trading.
- alien_at_work 9y agoI thought trades past a certain size had to be disclosed? But yes, this is probably the reason: I simply wouldn't be able to know until long after the fact.
