CapitolRadar analysis
25 buys versus 18 sells across 43 MO trades
MO has 43 tracked trades from 2018-12-12 through 2026-08-10: 25 buys and 18 sells by five distinct traders. Buys represent 58% of the disclosed transactions, while sells account for 42%. The record spans several years, but five participants remain a small sample, so the aggregate should not be treated as a broad measure of congressional or insider sentiment toward Altria Group or the Consumer Defensive / Tobacco industry.
18 of 25 buys came from Ro Khanna
Buying was concentrated. Ro Khanna accounted for 18 buys, or 72% of all tracked MO purchases, with the latest dated 2026-01-13. Josh Gottheimer recorded three buys, most recently on 2021-01-11. Diana Harshbarger and Pete Sessions each recorded two buys, last dated 2022-04-05 and 2021-05-19, respectively. These four named buyers account for all 25 purchases, although the overall trade set includes five distinct traders.
Cross-holdings show limited overlap rather than a dominant shared theme: two of these MO buyers also bought each of ADI, MSFT, PANW, FCX, RSG and GOOGL. The data does not identify which two buyers correspond to each stock or provide timing for those additional purchases.
Recent quarters contain only one to four disclosures
The listed quarterly activity is uneven and based on small counts. 2026 Q3 contains one trade and no buys, while 2026 Q1 contains one buy. Both trades in 2025 Q3 were buys; both trades in 2024 Q3 were sells. In 2024 Q1, three of four trades were buys. Earlier listed quarters include two buys in 2023 Q4, two buys among three trades in 2023 Q3, and one buy among three trades in 2023 Q2.
Disclosure timing is an important limitation: transactions may be reported up to 45 days after they occur, so the feed is not necessarily contemporaneous. Transaction amounts, when disclosed as ranges, are estimates rather than exact values. No amount data is provided here, making trade counts—not capital committed—the available basis for comparison.

CapitolRadar signal history
NEW PICK 2026-09-11
Altria director Kathryn B. McQuade disclosed buying about $101,430 of MO stock. The panel passed mainly because she has no verified trading history, so this insider-buy signal is unproven. Evidence that her prior purchases consistently beat SPY, supported by verified filings, could have changed the verdict.
