2iQ launches Capitol Trades, a platform that tracks US politician's tradesFRANKFURT, Germany, Aug. 2, 2021 /CNW/ -- 2iQ Research has launched the online service Capitol Trades (capitoltrades.com), where investors can track stock market trades of Capitol Hill politicians in a convenient way. The Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act of 2012 requires members of the US Congress to disclose their stock market trades, and since 2iQ has already built the largest and most sophisticated insider trading database globally, adding STOCK Act trade data to their offering was a logical step. Capitol Trades features:
Nils Bolsen, Program Manager, 2iQ Research: "We were not satisfied with the existing offerings for STOCK Act data, so we decided to create our own. The project benefited from our ~15 years of experience in providing global insider trading data. Existing processes and the right people in the right places led to fast results. Today, we are proud to deliver complete and near real-time transactions of US senators and representatives on Capitol Trades - for free." Muhammad Huzaifa Waseem, Team Lead, 2iQ Research: "While working on the data, I often stumbled upon trades where a politician bought the dip, buying at the perfect time, right before the price started rising. Or sold just before a stock started to go down. The data set undoubtedly has very valuable insights to help you make smart investment decisions."
