Gilbert Cisneros: Stock Purchases and Sales

What these filings show — and what they do not

The source is the official disclosure filings of the US Congress under the STOCK Act. What gets reported are individual transactions, not holdings: how much someone owns in total appears nowhere. Amounts are disclosed only as a statutory range — “$15,001–$50,000” is the entire figure, and no more precise one exists. Filings are due within 30 days of learning about the transaction and no later than 45 days after the trade, so weeks routinely pass between the trade and its publication. The field the source calls “owner” says who traded — frequently not the member of Congress but a spouse or a child. Part of the filings still arrive as scanned paper; those cannot be parsed and appear here only as a link to the original document.
