Marjorie Taylor Greene Reveals New Stock Trades After 2-Year Gap: Berkshire Hathway, Goldman Sachs And Microsoft Make The List — But Trump's DJT Doesn't

Benzinga ·  May 3 20:18

Firebrand Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) made headlines Thursday with a disclosure of her latest financial transactions.

What Happened: Greene's filing on Thursday marks her first periodic transaction report since June 2022, adhering to the "Stock Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act." This act mandates U.S. lawmakers to publicly disclose financial transactions within 45 days of occurrence, typically within a value range.

All transactions occurred on either April 25 or 26.

The details of Greene's transactions are as follows:

Berkshire Hathaway, Inc. (NYSE:BRK) (NYSE:BRK)$1,001-$15,000
Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE:GS)$1,001-$15,000

  • iShares Core S&P U.S. Growth ETF (NASDAQ:IUSG): $1,001-$15,000)

All the exchange-traded funds were part of mutual funds held in Greene's managed IRA account.

No DJT Trades: Greene, an ardent backer of Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump, incidentally did not do any new transaction in Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. (NASDAQ:DJT), the former president's media company that came public in late March following its merger with SPAC Digital World Acquisition.

The stock is down about 16% since its public debut.

When Digital World Acquisition announced its decision with Trump Media & Technology Group in 2021, Green was the first Congress member to invest in the SPAC. She then reported that she along with her then-husband Perry Greene bought $15,001-$50,000 worth of the SPAC's shares

Greene hasn't disclosed any sale of the stock since then.

The stock market has been on a tear this year despite the headwinds. The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:SPY), an ETF that tracks the broader S&P 500 Index, rose 0.34% to $506.74, in premarket trading, according to Benzinga Pro data. It has gained over 6.5% so far this year.
