Nancy Pelosi made $130M in stock profits during Congress career — a return of 16,930%

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her husband made at least $130 million in stock profits over the course of the California Democrat’s 37 years in Congress — a staggering return of 16,930%.

Pelosi, 85, announced this week she will retire when her term ends in January 2027.

The San Francisco pol became famous as the first woman to wield the speaker’s gavel, and infamous for her exceptional stock market returns.

Before first taking Congressional office in 1988, the then-47-year-old freshman and her hubby, venture capitalist Paul Pelosi, reported between $610,000 and $785,000 in stocks in their portfolio, according to a copy of her “hand delivered” 1987 financial disclosure form.

They held a dozen stocks, including CitiBank, and in many companies no longer publicly traded.

That portfolio has soared to $133.7 million today, according to the latest estimates from Quiver Quantitative.

That represents an eye-watering profit of 16,930% — compared to 2,300% for the Dow Jones over those years.

Even with the power of compound interest, the windfall represents a staggering 14.5% average annual return — beating out the S&P 500, NASDAQ and Dow Jones performances over those years, around 7% to 9%.

Last year, their investment portfolio pulled in an estimated 54% return, more than double the S&P 500’s 25% gain — and beating every large hedge fund, according to numbers in Bloomberg’s end-of-year tally.

Pelosi’s 2024 financial disclosure form shows holdings in some two dozen individual stocks, including millions in each of NVIDIA, Palo Alto Network, Salesforce, Netflix – and between $25 and $50 million of Apple stocks – their largest holding.

The Pelosis are worth an estimated $280 million today – compared to around $3 million when the Golden State lawmaker joined Congress.

No judgment here, but as for me I’ve never been to overly enamored by money.....but hey, that’s just me.

Seems like a heck of a gig IF one can get it...and get away with it.
Just look at AOC. Not much of a brain, but she “gets it” and obviously going for it, BIG TIME...maybe that should be “GIG TIME”....LOL.

Globalism was great for our elites who all profited handsomely from it, but largely it wasn’t profitable for the rest of us. Pelosi is certainly part of our elite.

And she had the nerve last week to call Trump “the worst thing on the face of the earth”. Well what the hell is SHE then? Her city San Fran is a disaster zone, she’s done absolutely nothing but line her pockets her entire career while Trump has literally risked EVERYTHING including his freedom even his life to try and save this country, and SHE is calling HIM the worst thing on earth?

You know what? She’s going to her grave like the rest of us, not able to take any of her stuff with her.

I would not like to hear her conversation with God when He explains what the ‘Thou shalt have no other gods before me’ means.

She missed her real calling, should been a talking head stock picker on the Money channel, we’d all be rich.

A compounded 9% rate of return over 30 years is about 1,200% in total, which is spectacular and about what I’ve done.

Pelosi did 13 TIMES better than me.

Did she call it “beginner’s luck” like Hillary did when she magically turned $1k into $100k in the Stock Market - and no one in the media questioned it (just as now with Pelosi).

Imagine the s**t show if the likes of Noem, Leavitt or Bondi did the same thing.

In Harry Truman’s day, this was a true statement, today Congress has legalized most things that mere Citizens go to jail over.

Insider Trading lands you and I in prison for years, for Congress it’s legal.

What Nancy Pelosi did was highly unethical but probably not illegal considering Democrats and Republicans alike are engaging in activities that are illegal for the rest of us.

Shrug! This is just capitalism at work. All debate and congressional bills are public records. IMHO.

She became very, very wealthy while contributing to the destruction of the USA. Term limits!

She is responsible for the most despicable act as speaker when she tore up Trump’s State of the Union speech on national TV.
