CapitolRadar analysis
53 trades: buys outnumber sells nearly two to one
Applied Materials (AMAT), a Technology / Semiconductors company, has 53 tracked congressional trades from 2019-03-12 through 2026-07-13. The record includes 35 buys and 18 sells by six distinct traders. Buys therefore represent 35 of 53 transactions, but transaction counts alone do not show the capital committed or the performance that followed.
The eight reported quarters from 2024 Q2 through 2026 Q3 contain 16 trades: 13 buys and three sells. Activity was highest in 2025 Q2, with five trades, including four buys. All four trades in 2024 Q4 were buys, while both trades in 2025 Q3 were sells. The remaining listed quarters each had one trade, except for those two higher-activity periods.
35 buys are concentrated among five named buyers
Ro Khanna accounts for 17 buys, with the latest dated 2024-09-09. Marjorie Taylor Greene has nine buys, last on 2025-06-06, and Markwayne Mullin has six, last on 2025-12-29. Tommy Tuberville has two buys, last on 2024-04-04, while Jared Moskowitz has one, dated 2026-07-13. Together, these five named buyers account for all 35 recorded buys. Because the full dataset covers only six distinct traders, conclusions about broader congressional behavior would rest on a small sample.
1 buyer overlaps with each listed comparison ticker
Among the AMAT buyers, one also bought PM, one bought SCHW, one bought TFC, one bought URI, one bought WSM and one bought ACGL. The facts do not identify whether these overlaps involve the same buyer or different buyers, so they do not establish a shared portfolio pattern.
Congressional disclosures can be filed up to 45 days after a trade, so reported activity may lag the transaction date. Disclosed dollar amounts are generally reported as ranges, making any amount-based totals estimates; no transaction-value ranges are provided here. The limited trader count and sparse activity in several quarters further constrain interpretation.

CapitolRadar signal history
NEW PICK 2026-09-15
Rep. Josh Gottheimer disclosed buying $1,001–$15,000 of Applied Materials stock. The panel passed mainly because he has no verified trading history versus the S&P 500, so the purchase signal remains unproven despite one other recent congressional buyer. A documented record of his disclosed buys consistently outperforming the market could have changed the verdict; the biggest caveat is the 40-day disclosure delay and unknown entry price.
NEW PICK 2026-08-31
Rep. Jared Moskowitz reportedly bought Applied Materials stock, but the panel passed because he has no verified trading record showing his purchases outperform the S&P 500. A documented history of similar purchases beating SPY, supported by a primary disclosure confirming this trade’s date and amount, could have changed the verdict. The biggest caveat is that the trade details came from a Reddit post and could not be fully verified.
