I analyzed every congressional disclosure for $SNOW since Feb 2025, buying on disclosure day returned +37% median, 100% win rate across 8 trades

Ran an analysis on congressional trading disclosures for SNOW. If you bought on the day the trade became public and sold 90 days later, across 8 trades since Feb 2025:

  • Median return: +37%
  • vs SPY: +32%
  • Win rate: 100%

Last disclosed buy: June 2025

This is post-disclosure, not the original transaction date, so this is publicly available information, not insider trading. The disclosure lag is typically 30-45 days after the actual trade.

Worth noting 8 trades is a small sample. But the consistency is hard to ignore.

Positions: none.
