ShadowBuys

See what politicians and CEOs buy, before it goes viral.

Stock trades from Congress and company insiders, delivered to your inbox as soon as they’re public.

Top performers in Congress over the past year · S&P 500: +10.9%

Estimated from each member’s disclosed stock trades, not their full portfolio. The faint line is the S&P 500.

How it works

  1. We pull in stock trades from Congress and CEOs, plus government contracts, lobbying reports and new federal rules, the moment they’re posted.

  2. We flag the interesting ones, like a big buy or a senator buying into an industry they oversee.

  3. You get an email about it right away.

Here’s what you’ll get.

Insider trades are buried in long government filings. You get each one in a short, clear email: who bought, what, how much and when. Here’s a real one.

Questions

How quickly will I hear about a trade?

As soon as it’s public. Company insiders have two business days to report a trade. Members of Congress can take up to 45 days, so their filings often show up weeks later. New filings are checked all day, and you get an email as soon as each one is ready.

What will I get by email?

An email for each new filing, with a link to the original. Follow specific companies to hear about Congress trades and insider purchases in them, or get alerts for all of Congress. You can also turn on a Monday shortlist of up to five companies worth a look, sent on weeks when there are any.

The filings are public. Why pay?

You could read them yourself, but they’re spread across government websites and hard to read. ShadowBuys checks them for you, lays out each trade clearly and flags the ones that stand out. Subscribers also see new trades right away. Everyone else sees them a day later.

Can I check the original filing?

Yes. Every alert and trade page links to the official filing.

How does the free trial work?

The first 7 days are free. Pick monthly ($29 a month) or yearly ($108 a year) and add a card to start. Cancel before the trial ends and you won’t be charged. Otherwise, your plan starts automatically.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes, from your account or the link in any email. You keep access until the end of the period you’ve paid for. Payments aren’t refunded.
