CapitolRadar analysis
3 tracked PEP trades, all sales
PepsiCo, Inc. (PEP) recorded 3 tracked trades from October 7, 2025, through July 30, 2026. All 3 were sales, with 0 purchases. The activity came from 3 distinct traders, so each trader accounted for one transaction in this limited dataset.
The one-sided direction is clear within the reported sample: sales represented 100% of tracked transactions. However, 3 trades are too small a sample to establish a broad or persistent trading pattern. The available facts also do not provide transaction values, share counts, trader names, or a breakdown between congressional and insider activity, so comparisons by trader type or trade size are not possible.
2 sales in 2026 Q3 versus 1 in 2025 Q4
Quarterly activity was concentrated in two reported periods. The third quarter of 2026 contained 2 trades, both sales, while the fourth quarter of 2025 contained 1 trade, also a sale. That means 2026 Q3 represented two-thirds of all tracked PEP transactions, and 2025 Q4 represented one-third.
No purchases were recorded in either quarter. Still, the quarter-to-quarter difference is only one transaction, and the small sample limits what can be inferred from that change. The data supports a description of disclosed activity, not conclusions about motives or expectations for PepsiCo, a Consumer Defensive company in the non-alcoholic beverages industry.
Disclosure timing and value caveats
Reported trading data may appear up to 45 days after a transaction because of the disclosure lag, so the record is not necessarily real-time. Transaction amounts in disclosures are often reported as ranges; estimates based on those ranges are not exact. No amount ranges or estimated dollar values were supplied for these 3 PEP trades, preventing analysis of their financial magnitude.

CapitolRadar signal history
NEW PICK 2026-09-08
Rep. Ro Khanna disclosed a $1,001–$15,000 purchase of PepsiCo stock. The panel passed mainly because Khanna has no verified trading history versus the S&P 500, so the buyer signal is unproven. A documented record showing that his prior purchases consistently outperformed the market would have strengthened the case enough to reconsider the verdict.
