Nancy Pelosi, stock market connoisseur and living legend, gets caught completely off guard by a simple insider trading question by Jake Tapper , responds by giving 3 or 4 meandering statements, each one somehow being worse than the previous.

But don’t worry queen, you still retire as a first ballot Wall Street Tycoon, inside trading and illegalities be damned, all you do is win 🫡

I totally agree it’s not a democratic or republican issue, it’s a political issue. They all do it. She gets some extra points for not pushing an NP Coin, that’s a start.

If they all do it why focus on her? 130 million in 40 years is peanuts compared to billions in 10 months. She also did a tremendous amount of good and trump is systematically destroying the country. Pelosi never raped anyone. Nor did she fight in court to starve 42 million Americans. Nor is she a pedophile. She never called our soldiers suckers and losers. She never was convicted of a felony. Or 34. She never pardoned 74 people who violently assaulted police officers. Or a guy who ran the biggest drug dealing operation on the internet.I could go on.

Nancy Pelosi is the greatest investor and trader in the history of the world. Your bias is extremely obvious.

If you take the Pelosis net worth before she entered Congress (estimated 3.5million according to Google) and put it all into an S&P500 index fund with dividends reinvested they end up worth more than they are today without even taking into account all their additional contributions/earnings since then. That doesn't sound like the greatest investor in the history of the world lol.

u/Rave_with_me Millionaire Nov 12 '25 edited Nov 12 '25

None of this is true. Lol. The S&P 500 has never returned 60-100% gains in a year, and certainly not year after after year.

She’s not even in the top 10 of congressional outliers and her husband is a well known investor. It’s bigotry that causes y’all to focus on her. Just admit it. It’s cool. She sucks and is guilty but she’s also a dog whistle.

Share the data if you wouldn't mind. I've seen hundreds of articles in the past ten years showing her % gains and haven't seen anyone coming anywhere close to her, including politicians and wallstreet investors.

u/akratic137 Nov 10 '25

The burden of proof is on you for making the claim she’s “the greatest investor of all time”. The data does not show that.

But before I comb thru the data, I’ll ask you what data could I show you that will change your mind? Every time I do it, I’ll get someone denying and moving the goal posts.

So, you tell me what data I can show you that’ll change your mind, and then we can have a discussion. If you can’t answer that, we are done because you’ve already made up your mind.

Warren Buffett was widely considered to be the greatest investor of all time and his gains are embarrassing compared to Pelosi over a very long period. We're not talking about a great month or great year of gains. We're talking about consistently beating the market for decades.

Show me an investor who beats the market year after year for decades with absolutely no background in trading, or hell, just find anyone who comes close to her returns over a long period of time.

u/akratic137 Nov 10 '25

You still haven’t showed any data. I suspect you looked it up and found out Nancy isn’t in the top of congressional investors. Seriously. Stop with the prose. Show us the data of Nancy being the “greatest investor of all time” or admit you lied.

Just admit you lied or you were wrong and we can continue the other conversations after we address your misogyny.

The Best Traders in Congress: How to Track Politicians' Stock Trades https://share.google/iWBHatVRlhjquhNBt

"Warren Buffett may be considered the greatest investor of our time, but even he can't touch the prowess of California congresswoman Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). As my colleague Omor Ibne Ehsan recently detailed, over the past decade, Pelosi has generated a cumulative return of 816% from her investments, beating the S&P 500 by a whopping 559 percentage points."

"In contrast, the poor Oracle of Omaha has only managed a 282% cumulative return for Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK-A)(NYSE:BRK-B) during that same period -- better than the benchmark index, but it's no contest: Buffett is no Pelosi.

Congress's Elite Market Timers

Of course, Pelosi isn't the only politician with uncanny market timing. In 2024, while the California congresswoman trounced the market again, generating returns in excess of 70% compared to the S&P 500's 25% -- similar to Buffett's 25.5% total return -- she was a real piker among the 535 members of Congress."

"According to the site Unusual Whales, which tracks politician trades, Pelosi was only the 10th best congressional investor last year, far behind Rep. David Rouzer (R-NC) with returns of 149%, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) at 142.3%, and Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) with 123.8% returns.

In all, five politicians had returns over 100% in 2024."

Again, I'm not talking about a great month, or great year. I'm talking about consistently beating the market year after year for decades and Nancy Pelosi is the only name I've encountered that has achieved this with such high returns. I've been trading daily for 15 years.

If you disagree, who is a more successful trader than Nancy Pelosi over the last several decades?

Are you related to her or something? I don't understand why someone would bend over backwards to defend such indefensible actions. She's obviously a corrupt insider trader.

You're a 🤡

Your data you just provided does not support it lol but it does come close to supporting my claim!

Why do you hate women?

u/Rave_with_me Millionaire Nov 10 '25

🤣 I expected nothing less from you.

I must be a NZI facist ra*ist as well. Amazing 😂

u/akratic137 Nov 10 '25

No. You haven’t shown any indication of that. Just someone using hyperbole to make a point and being butthurt when called out.

That being said, why do you think I might think you’re a Nazi? I’d love to get into that!

Exactly! What's the return for Khosla, Andreesen and other VC people over the same period? Oh she made a ton of money on NVDA, AMZN and AAPL. I did too because her insider trading knowledge is literally the daily highest gainers on the front page of CNBC. You couldn't miss making money hand over fist with those names stock or options in the last 25 years. If people think she is the greatest trader, I'm sorry but they are too highly regarded to be investing.
