Congress trades in Caterpillar Inc (CAT)
11 of the members we track disclosed 15 purchases of CAT between 2022-03-29 and 2026-01-29, and 17 sales. Here is what the stock did afterwards.
Every purchase is measured over the three months after the transaction date, against XLI — the ETF standing in for Industrials — over exactly the same dates. The second figure is the one that carries information: the first mostly reflects what the sector did. How CAT was classified.
How these buys are tagged
Caterpillar Inc is a mega-cap, so a committee-aligned purchase here is tagged Aligned (Mega-cap) rather than Notable: owning a company this size says little about committee access. 9 are marked Cluster: A buy is marked Cluster when at least one other tracked member of Congress bought the same stock within 30 days of it, regardless of committee membership.

Prices are the closing price on the transaction date, not what was paid: filings never disclose an execution price. Blank figures mean the window has not elapsed yet. Sales are not scored — a sale closes a position rather than opening one — so the 17 disclosed sales of CAT are not in this table.
