CapitolRadar analysis
32 trades, with buys accounting for 25
VWLUX disclosures show 32 tracked trades from December 14, 2022 through January 2, 2026: 25 buys and seven sells. That is a buy-heavy record by transaction count, with buys representing 25 of the 32 reported trades. The activity is attributed to just one distinct trader, making this a small sample rather than a broad congressional pattern.
Michael McCaul is the identified buyer, with all 25 disclosed buys and a most recent buy dated January 2, 2026. The supplied data does not separately identify the seller, so the seven sales should not be assigned beyond the stated one-trader dataset. Transaction counts also do not indicate the dollars invested or withdrawn.
10 buys across the eight listed quarters
The quarterly detail provided accounts for 12 trades from 2024 Q2 through 2026 Q1, including 10 buys and two sells. The busiest listed quarters were 2024 Q2, 2024 Q3, 2025 Q1 and 2025 Q2, each with two trades. Every other listed quarter—2024 Q4, 2025 Q3, 2025 Q4 and 2026 Q1—had one trade.
All eight listed quarters included at least one buy. The two quarters whose totals exceeded their stated buy counts were 2024 Q3 and 2025 Q2, each showing two trades but one buy. The remaining 20 of the 32 total trades fall outside the supplied quarter-by-quarter lines, so their quarterly distribution cannot be determined from these facts.
Six other securities appear in the same buyer record
The buyer also disclosed purchases of HUM, SWK, EQT, SAP, DFIC and OMF. Because there is only one buyer in this VWLUX sample, each “1 of them” reference points to that same limited buyer set. These overlaps do not establish timing, transaction size or motive.
Congressional disclosures can be filed up to 45 days after a trade, so reported activity may lag execution. No transaction amounts were provided here; when disclosures use amount ranges, those ranges are estimates rather than exact trade values. The one-trader sample limits broader conclusions.
